April 2015 In the Pink

Post by MikeT »

There have been lots of topics previously, which gives me a problem in finding something new. We've had a few colour based months so far, so I'll follow that theme. So for April, the theme is anything with a shade of pink - gives scope for flowers or foliage - or both together.

Echeveria halbingeri var sanchez-mejoradae, the label says, more like a hybrid of Echeveria agavoides

Same plant as used in one of my pictures last month but a new picture taken in this morning's sunshine hoping tht the camera will give a different tint to the flowers as the previous picture was taken indoors using LED lights.
