Ahhh, the life of a garden is what makes me feel like I am living in the moment. Hearing the song of a bird, the buzzing of a bee, the sound of the waterfall, fragrance in the wind, warmth of the sunshine on my skin – when I close my eyes and all of these fabulous feelings are around me is what makes me love being alive.
But I will say seeing the shades of pinks in the garden makes my tummy flutter. here is what PINK I am seeing in the garden this week!
Remember these tulips from last week? well they are all awake now & welcome any visitor who walks the front pathway!
So pretty are the Indian Summer Crabapples opening up and the presence of Hino Crimson Azalea’s.
More pink tulips.We must not forget how prevalent that pink flowering current looks in our gardens and the beginning phase of loosing our our fragrant hyacinth flowers (until next spring).
Also showing it’s color this week is the heuchera and this stunning slug loving primrose.
Raspberry Splash Lungwart is such a fantastic pop of pink seen from a distance throughout the entire garden & the always reliable Bergenia common name is “Pigsqeak” is finally showing it’s blooms.
You know by now that one of my favorite garden flower the bleeding bleeding heart. Last summers addition was the Concord Dwarf Barberry shrub with beautiful shades of pink. Cannot forget the all to common bells of the Pieris flowering shrub.
Hope you enjoyed seeing the love I have for pink in the garden this week. Linking to Cottage Flora Thursday’s ! To see where else I am linking to this week – please check my “Cottage Links” label…

WOW! Tracie, your walkway is so inviting..wish I could visit and walk amoung the pretty pink tulips..they look stunning!
Love, love the walkway. What a welcome as you approach the front door! My tulips are about 3 inches tall right now but the snow has only been gone a week, the poor dears were afraid to pop up their first leaves.
gorgeous!
I have a thing for pink flowers in the garden!
It's still too cold here and only just now starting to see the leaves of my tulips, peonies and hydrangeas peaking out of the ground.
I did notice that my lilac is starting to bloom. Way too early!
But I love how the pink looks with the exterior of your home
Have a wonderful week
Hugs,

Your path of tulips is gorgeous! Things are not in bloom here yet so I love looking at all your beautiful flowers...a garden must have lots of pink and I love yours!

Everything looks so pretty the pink with your gray house is perfect.
I am loving all the pinks along your gorgeous walkway. I really like the photo peeking over the gate.
Tracie,
What a beautiful setting with the tulips up your walkway. I have Raspberry Splash, not quite blooming yet. Also, that Bleeding Heart, have not seen this one before.

Oh my goodness!! I love all the pink.. I would want to hangout on the front porch, walking up and down the walk trying to take in all that pink goodness.. Absolutely fabulous..
hugs from Savannah, Cherry
What a picture those tulips and white picket fence make! Tulips don't do well here, so I am always amazed when someone has masses like that. Love that last bleeding heart, too. Very pretty pinks!
Your walkway is so beautiful. I agree the tuplips are stunning.
Pink and green look fantastic with the colour of your house and the white picket fence!! Your walkway is lovely, so inviting to visitors!
Everything is so lovely ~ especially those pink tulips....ahhhh, dreamy...
Happy Pink Saturday to you - hope you have a lovely weekend :O)
Oh Tracie, I think if I were to walk up to your door, I would never arrive. I would be at the gate looking at all the gorgeous blooms. I love bleeding hearts. I would be caught in the moment for sure. Happy Pink Saturday, Char

Oh Tracie Sweetie...
What a gorgeous cottage you have. I love walking through the front gate, it is so welcoming in itself, and then to find the beauty that awaits me. From the walkway to the grounds surrounding, it is SO breathtakingly beautiful. Your tulips are exquisite and the scent is DO delightful. I love it.
Thank you for sharing with me today. The scents have drawn me back to life after a very tiring week at work. Thank you sweet friend. Many hugs and much love, Sherry
Your walkway is just beautiful! What heavenly pink tulips!
All your flowers are lovely and I love your bleeding hearts, too!

You have a beautiful front entrance, love the pink tulips lining the walk. A lovely pink selection of spring flowers. Gorgeous!!
You thumb is a lot greener than mind. I would love having a yard like yours. Simply stunning.
Wow....that is just beautiful!!!! hugs...cleo
Pink is my favorite garden color too. In fact, I have to make myself buy other colors so all my flowers won't blend together. Lovely flowers, but that gate looks like it came out of a magazine. Happy Pink Saturday!
Wow, I love all that 'pinkness'! We are coming into autumn (or fall) here in Australia and I am loving it after the long hot summer we have had.

What a beautiful pink post. All those flowers are gorgeous. Happy pink Saturday
OM goodness - your pink tulips are beautiful. You are so lucky - we can't grow them here.
Happy PS!
Tracie,
Love the garden of pinks!
Stop bt for a visit. April Showers Bring May Flowers!
Poem of the day for PS!

Such wonders!! I love the little spray of bleeding hearts seen behind the tulips!
Your gate is so wonderfully designed and built, it makes a perfect focal point for this walkway. What a lovely garden.
Happy Pink Saturday!
Your garden is really looking lovely with all that fabulous pink...I adore your tulips...I hope to add some tulips for next spring...In pots of course, so I can sneak them into my freezer for a couple of weeks during the winter, insuring they get a good deep freeze...something that does not happen long enough naturally in our part of Florida to put them in the ground.
Blessings Kelsie
LOVE the bright pink tulips going up the walkway against the dark gray of the house. Stunning :)

Beautiful! I love tulips, especially PINK! TFS, Nan
Wow, you've got some gorgeous pinks! I'm hoping my husband will take me out tomorrow to see if there's any tulips left in the fields now that our big tulip festival is over for the year!

Oh what a delightful entrance to your home, the beautiful fence and gate and the walk way lined with those beautiful pink tulips. So charming. Love all your other pink flowers and plants too. Blessings.
Just beautiful--I have bergenia as well and although it is pretty much done blooming for the year it always makes me happy to see those pink flowers so early in the season!
