Rosa ‘Spirit of Freedom’
A trio of trios in shades of pink: flamingos, roses and hollyhock flowers.
Why do I get the feeling that, when it comes to flamingos, three can sometimes be a crowd?
For more pictures of threes, take a look at this week’s photo challenge.
I didn’t realize pink was part of the challenge. 😉

Such a nice collection. Did you ever make hollyhock dolls when you were little?

I look for the rabbit in larkspur flowers and I’ve made a lot of daisy chains in my youth but I hadn’t heard of hollyhock dolls. I can see from googling them that they’re very sweet. Thanks for teaching me a little more gardening lore – that’s always very welcome.

I didn’t think to Google them. I sorta thought we’d invented them. Ha. Must do so now.

we put a toothpick through the torso and stuck on arms as well…buds with full sleeves.

I suppose the double ones work best – I like how the green sepals make a bodice. I’m going to give it a try next time I find one growing wild or if I can cadge a flower from a friend. I haven’t grown them for many years – the last ones suffered terribly with rust.

Yes…I haven’t seen hollyhocks but once since I was a little girl.

I looked up larkspur flowers and think I see your rabbit! Did you read Nancy Drew? One of my favorites was, “The Secret of Larkspur Lane!”

Whenever I catch sight of that picture, I always have to stop myself trying to work out which legs go with which bird.
