Periwinkle and a Linky


I've been sharing photos of flowers in my garden. Today's flowers are two types of periwinkle. The pink and white ones are known as Madagascar periwinkle or Cape periwinkle. Since I live in the Western Cape, the latter fits best. They last forever once cut. The photo above shows how pretty they are in a bouquet. I have more photos of the violet-colored periwinkle, which make a pretty groundcover. Our shelter dog, Koda, is included in the last pic.

    1. I use a third party comment system that only works if you load the page in http and not https. This one is the default comment system. I don't like it as much, mainly because my reply won't go to you directly.

  5. Beautiful pictures! Periwinkle flowers are beautiful and great survivors. In my place, it is called a name which means 'one that smells like a dead body".
