"CASCADING GLORIOSA DAISIES" 

 "Be courteous to all, but intimate with few; and let those be well-tried before you give them your confidence." ~ George Washington

Has there ever been a daisy as lovely as these "Gloriosa Daisies," with their shades of yellow, orange, and red ringed around a large, glittering center? These huge blooms are of the richest butterscotch and orange with a deep big center "eye!"  The beautiful weather (temps in the lower 80s) was an added bonus. When I captured these, I had no idea that they appeared to be cascading in a half circle. Don't you just love strolling through gardens? I do; they are not only beautiful, but offer a peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle of daily activity. 

Thanks fotoeffects for the accurate name of these flowers. Thanks, Smugmuggers, for your comments on the "Pink Coneflowers" shot yesterday; it landed in the numero seis (number six) spot. You are all great!! Have a terrific Tuesday, everyone.
