I've missed Pink Saturday for several weeks. I've missed visiting you, too!
I thought I'd take you to Monet's Garden in Giverny, France (and hope that I didn't use any of these on my earlier post back in late June!)
Here's is Monet's house -- or rather, an upper window! All pink and green, like the garden!

You can't talk about Monet without mentioning water lilies!
At this time of year, pink was the predominant color -- well, next to green.
My favorite flowers were the pink poppies. I'd seen lots of red ones before, but none this color.
It was, indeed, a magical place.
I've saved a bit of Giverny (the town) for a future Pink Saturday. Meanwhile, for lots of other lovely pink things, please visit Beverly at How Sweet the Sound.
Hello, Jeanie,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed my tour of Monet's gardens. They are just beautiful. The pink poppies are gorgeous. I am a gardener so I always enjoy a peek into another person's garden. I look forward to seeing more of Giverny. Have a good weekend. Vicki
Love your blooms.
ReplyDeleteNice pink post!
Happy weekend.
My favorite artist! I love the picture of the shuttered window surrounded by ivy. And, of course, the water lilies--not hard to see his inspiration! Thanks for sharing the pictures~
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a poppy that color. Aren't they delicate?
ReplyDeleteHow totally lovely! Thanks so much for sharing this week. Raining here...again...so I needed a little bit of cheer! Pink Saturday always makes me smile, even if the sky is gray.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend with those you l♥ve.
Thank you for the tour of Monet's gardens. They are really lovely. I hope you are having a great day.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful, and yes... magical. P.S. I love, love your kitty!

Oooooooo, I think I need a pink and green and brown outfit for fall!! And maybe I'll have to make some jewelry to match! These photos are delightful.

Gorgeous photos, Jeanie! So many stunning shades of pink, and the poppies are spectacular. Hope to see it all in person one day. :-)

Lovely shots of a very relaxing garden. A walk through there would lower your blood pressure, I'm sure.
