Washington Flowers

From our Washington trip last month, here are some of the flowers we saw. First, two photos from the downtown Bellevue park:
And finally some flowers from Seattle itself.
Tina's PicStory theme this week is April flowers; we don't have any where I live yet but these from our March vacation will have to do. And of course, they're an entry for Our World Tuesday.

    You went to Seattle! Isn't it beautiful in the Northwest this time of year? I miss it! Thanks for the memories. (Eugene OR where we used to live has much the same climate as Seattle, so these are all flowers I'm missing by being in Florida!)

    Där har det allt kommit långt med alla blommor vi får vänta ett tag till innan de blommar hos oss i småland Sverige.
    Ha en fin vecka

    Given the often gray Seattle skies, it is so nice that the flowers have more than enough sun (however weak :) to allow fr such beautiful flowers. Happily winter will stay away long enough to look at and admire these spring flowers...

    Oh my.. you jumped over the spring?? haha
    because this is nearly look as summer. we haven't got green grass yet. I don't want summer to come too fast.. because I love spring so much, early spring.

    But your photos are awesome! beautiful flowers we can look forward to come, also here. but at your home place, I guess it's not green grass yet? I can remember my grandfather was in Seattle, among other places.. looong time ago.. :)

    Thank you for sharing these wonderful photos! =)
