I wanted to share something cheery for Becky’s January Squares. Goodness knows we’re in need of it. These erigerons are all looking up, providing a flat landing spot for pollinators. I wonder if insects spend any time wondering which to land on first or just plop down on the nearest? They often seem to circle before making their choice.
Bloggers have a similar quandary as there are so many tempting blogging challenges around at the moment and although it’s impossible to take part in them all, I’ve been enjoying seeing the submissions in my Reader.
That’s no reason to neglect an old favourite, so I’m also linking to Cee’s Flower of the Day. Cee maintains a list of current blogging challenges on her blog if you’re looking for something to join in with.
And I promise to dig out some browns to support HeyJude’s Colour challenge soon.

Oh these are so cheerful – just what we all need 🥰
I needed a bit of colour after a year of snow – so far, that is! 🙂
Very cheerful. Be nice when they are back in flower.
Perhaps all adults will be vaccinated by then – fingers crossed!
Glorious colour.
You often see a pinker shade round here, which is nice too.
Very uplifting Susan
And you are so right about the challenge and how we cannot do them all! Ahhh – was glad to read that because I am lured at times but need to stay realistic – haha
Luckily we can dip in and out of them knowing nobody minds.
😊☀️
Oh, I forgot about Jude’s browns! Maybe it will work for tomorrow. Thanks, Susan 🙂 🙂
I see that it did 🙂
🙂 🙂
Beautiful, vibrant, and much appreciated!
Thanks, Laurie.
A gorgeous bright colour and definitely uplifting 🙂
I could imagine this being the colour of the sky on an alien world!
I think that, if I were a pollinator, I’d just keep circling, afraid of being electrocuted. That is one high-voltage color! Very bracing indeed — thank you!
It would be nice to think flies do not have fears, but I fear you are right. They are skittish.
A beautiful, cheerful colour! 🙂
They are very sturdy, reliable flowers too.
Fresh and so bright..indeedjust what I needed!
I’m glad you liked it.
These are so beautiful.
Thank you for sharing 💜💜💜
My pleasure.
💝💖
Uplifting colors indeed!
The combination with yellow helps.
