Funny that I didn’t take a favourite rose picture this year – I mentioned before I’d had a bit of a rose drought in 2017. But this roundup wouldn’t be right without a rose, so I’m sharing one of my favourite rose shots ever, from this post: Pink Rose Gallery
Shared for the Weekly Photo Challenge: 2017 Favourites
Susan Rushton 
all lovely photos. I would be hard pressed to choose a favourite from amoung them.
Thanks – this was one of the trickier challenges.
A pure delight, this post is, Susan. Thanks for sharing the beauty!
My pleasure.
Magnificent photos!
Thanks Anne.
Forget-me-nots; that would be my favorite, even if the flowers are not as fun in the garden as the others are. The pink flowering crabapple would be the second.
I once saw forget-me-nots used for underplanting colourful tulips at The Dorothy Clive Garden. You’d have loved it.
That is one of the better applications I like them for. The grew wild in the shady forest floor near my Pa’s home in Montara. The light blue contrasted nicely in the shade. Well, I could go on and on and on about them, but I won’t.
These are lovely. But then again, any of your flower pictures would have been good choices.
Thanks Margaret. It’s very kind of you to say so.
Wow, you really make 2017 look good! If I had to pick a favorite, I’d be forever deciding, but I’m certainly drawn to that snoozy bee. This rose is quite the Grand Finale. Another lovely start to my day — thanks!
Glad to oblige! I would like to do a calendar of flowers post one day, but I’d want to use more than just one year’s photos for that.
A fine bouquet
Thanks, Derrick.
What gorgeous photos, and so wonderful to see them in the midst of our snowy, cold winter. Thank you for sharing.
I really enjoyed the snow day we had the other day when I was in Mississippi, but it’s quite different when you don’t have travel plans and know it is only fleeting. I hope you’re managing to keep warm and cosy.
A lovely recap Susan. Looking forward to seeing what discoveries you make in 2018 🙂
That’s a thought. And I you!
Floral felicitations to you. Lovely.

And to you, Esme.
They are all so gorgeous! They made me start my day with a smile. 🙂
I had been trying to find a favourite for the year among those I hadn’t posted, then had the idea to do it this way instead, which was much easier.
Lovely
Glad you liked them!
