Blossoming

These Geraniums blooming by the front window are nearly as fascinating as they are beautiful. The individual flowers in each cluster do not bloom all at once. In this photo you can see the blossoms still in the queue below the first bloomers!

 

In this photo, there are only two flowers left to bloom, and one of the buds is beginning to raise its head and open:

Opening ceremonies are beginning

 

I find these intricate blossoms singularly beautiful! I believe they’ll make worthy additions to the Floral Finery series.
