In the flower world, many times a pink flower will be identified as "rose" and while we think of Valentine's Day as all about red, pink is lovely, too. On this rosy sweet day, let's look at what is pink at Our Little Acre (in warmer days, of course).
Dahlia 'Hawaii'
Caladium
Alstroemeria 'Zavina'
Oxalis
Zinnia

Happy Valentines Day to you too Kylee. I was wondering if that Oxalisis is a houseplant or grown in your garden as a perennial??
I like your new signature.
I am so in love with these!! Thanks for sharing!!! The Dahlia is absolutely STUNNING! wow! Happy Valentine's Day:):)
Impressive photos! I love the pink echinacea. And the columbine, too--I really dig macro shots.
Hi Kylee,
Oh, my! What a treat! Love that your camera is stuck in macro mode.
Thanks for visiting LISH. A Wardian Case bought at Longwood? Gasp, gasp, gasp.
Just gorgeous! I am so anxious for spring so I can get into my garden. Thanks for sharing your beautiful flowers :-) Rosie
Happy Valentine's Day Kylee!
I love your Bougainvillea 'Imperial Palace' - it is gorgeous. The Echinacea 'PDD' looks wonderful in this photograph. The play of light on the bloom is beautfiul.
And then there's the Dahlia, Gazania and Zinnia that remind me of a hot summer day. I shouldn't forget the Pink though - it would probably win me completely over with its scent.
Kylee, what gorgeous photo shots! You have made me long for spring.
I'm putting your link on my page...

You are definitely "in the pink" for Valentine's Day. Hope you had a good day.

Ah, we can always count on you for some warming, brightening colours to chase away the dull drabs of winter. Suddenly, spring doesn't feel SO far away....Happy (slightly belated, but it's still the 14th in Ohio) Hearts to you and Romie and the catchildren too!
Happy Valentine's Day, Kylee! Your flowers are gorgeous. I really like having tiarellas in my shady spots. I'd not seen Spring Symphany! It's a beauty! You're being very inspiring! :-)
I love all of your pink blooms, especially the last picture of the rose.
Oh, how I long for greens and pinks and yellows in real life. Your photos remind me a little of what it is like to feel warm.
kylee: Happy V-day to you, too (a day late). Are your caladiums growing now? And are those Florida Sweethearts? And pink bouganvillea-what a treat!
All your pinks were fun to peruse.
I'm in love with these plants! They all have amazing color, details, and textures. I'm drolling over the Bougainvillea Imperial Garden. I have never seen that hear and this is the second blog that someone has posted it. The gazania is wonderful. I love the pattern that it makes and the small hints of yellow on the edges of the petals. The Dahlia Hawaii is so gorgeous great color and so many petals. Love caladium, normally I like the pale pink but this really pops against the wood board. That Zinnia is a fantastic mix of colors. I would die to get that zinnia. If you know what variety or the name of it do tell! I'll stop now I could just go on and on.
What gorgeous photos! I'm so glad you decided to join in the pink post fun. I really love your blog!

Is that Zavina a common or hybrid name for the picture you have of Alstroemeria? I think I have a picture of the same kind and going through an identification process of the blooms in my neighborhood. Thanks for you assistance.
