Today’s Flower a Day is pure frivolity! These frothy pink frills of cyclamen petals were so light and lovely that I wanted to feature them entirely on their own. They seem to float like dancers’ skirts whirling around a ballroom, as dancers often seem, without a care in the world. I hope all your cares, my dear readers, are fewer with the sight of these today and that this will help to make your day special.

Frills are meant to adorn. They are put there to make something nice even nicer. So it is with the cyclamen. Already a beautiful plant and perfectly acceptable without the frills, they are made simply sweeter with the addition of frlls. Frills are ‘frilling’ and so I am ‘frilled’ with today’s choice. Thank you, Ellie, for making my day special.
Dear Janet,
I was specially hoping that you would like this! And I am glad that the frills were pleasing to you. With my love.

I agree they do look like ballroom dancers all the frills on the edges of the pedals and the way they flow and the beautiful colour. Thanks for sharing
Thanks so much Linda! I’m glad you see them as I do!
