{Happy Easter with Our Pelargonium 'Rosebud'}

This year Easter is quite late and thus we have NO daffodils like for last year's {Easter Season} ← (click to go to that blog). So I had to fill my Villeroy & Boch egg vases with different blossoms this year. Our Pelargonium hybrid 'Pink Rosebud' and 'Appleblossom Rosebud' were just perfect! So have a look...
The 'Sheep' place card holders with a vintage cream porcelain egg tray and chicken salt & pepper with the Villeroy & Boch egg vases. Because of the color blossoms, I used only the pink and green egg vases. Those 'Appleblossom Rosebud' ←(click it) and 'Pink Rosebud' ←(click it) Pelargonium are available at Logee's Greenhouse. Click on each name to go to their website's page for it.
See my previous blog about {Victorian hybrid Pelargonium 'Red Rosebud'} ← click it. That makes now a family of three different Pelargonium hybrids with Rosebuds. They are so lovely! A study in poetry as Logee's is calling the 'Appleblossom Rosebud'.
Just like true roses are these 'Pink Rosebud' Pelargonium...
The real chicken egg gives you a good idea about the size of the blossoms!
Those 'Appleblossom Rosebud' Pelargonium are so special...
On April 12, they started budding up and were just perfect for a great Easter bouquet. 
Hope you all do have a Happy Easter with lots of sunshine! 
Thanks for your visit.

  13. Bij ons bloeien de Narcissen nu, dus fijn op tijd voor pasen!
    Maar ik vind de appelbloesem ook heel mooi, daar moeten wij nog even op wachten.
    Ook zijn de eerste lammetjes geboren bij Jan, wij verzorgden deze week de dieren van Jan.

    Ik wens jullie fijne paasdagen vanuit een zonnig Norge,
    Sandy
