The flower pictures below run the gamut in terms of plant type. As you browse my flower pictures, you'll find differences in texture, the part of the plant providing the color, and the season during which the plant achieves the height of its color display.
There are examples among these pics of annuals and perennials, trees, shrubs and vines. Besides blooms, colorful foliage, seeds and berries are represented. Floral and foliar textures range from coarse to fine. There are examples of spring, summer and fall standouts in these photos, as well as flower pictures of wildflowers, tropical flowers and potted plants.
Yellow Flowers
Red Flowers
Blue Flowers
Purple Flowers
Most floral colors do have some sort of fan base. There are gardeners, for example, who love yellows, reds and oranges for their ability to light up an otherwise drab area of the yard with vibrant color. For others, looking for more subdued colors, soft pink or lavender flowers may be favorites.
But purple flowers, along with blue ones (for pictures of blue flowers, see above) seem to be in a league of their own when it comes to eliciting oohs and ahs from gardeners. Remember, purple was traditionally the color of royalty! Purple is also considered one of the cool colors that help relax us. My purple flower pictures will help you choose from among the number of plants that bear blooms of this regal, soothing color.
Orange Flowers
Black Flowers
White Flowers
Plants With Silver Foliage
You've probably heard the saying, "All that glitters is not gold." It's true: some of it is silver! Just as shrubs like Gold Mops add much to a landscape with their golden foliage, so the smaller plants with silver foliage that I feature in these photos will please the eye month after month.
Plants grown mainly for their foliage are "there for you," whether their leaves be silver, gold, green or variegated. Blooms are often ephemeral, but you can count on foliage plants (some year-round, others for extended periods of time, at least). Think stable, think rock solid, think dependable friend. View these pictures of plants with silver leaves for ideas.
Lavender Flowers
Pink Flowers
Browse my pink flower pictures for help with your plant selection. As in the above photo galleries, my examples of plants with pink flowers run the gamut, from taller specimens (trees and shrubs) to shorter (vines) and from perennials to annuals.
Pink flowers can share with red flowers a bit of the latter's "notice me" quality yet often remain more subdued. Not all pinks are created equal. Light pink flowers can approach a whitish color and function as a neutral, in a pinch. Deep pink flowers, meanwhile, attract more attention (planted in masses, they argue their case for focal point status).
