This month we will be looking for Pink. A delicate colour that means sweet, nice, playful, cute, romantic, charming, feminine, and tenderness, is associated with bubble gum, flowers, babies, little girls, cotton candy, and sweetness.
Or sometimes a bright, in your face, neon pink.

So many shades! Mine is darkest crimson at the moment but will pale in the next few weeks. 🙂 🙂
You need a big pergola like this one. Still waiting for a photo of your roof patio.
I do have quite a big pergola and it’s growing nicely. I’m sure you’ve seen a couple of shots. Not easy to do the whole thing 🤔💕
You need a drone camera 😅
Always a beauty!
Indeed. Although to be honest I think this one could do with a bit of a prune. Do you grow it? Or is it too humid where you live?
They love humidity – we had them growing when we lived in Darwin and Mr ET had to prune them. He refuses to have them in the garden now.
I can understand why, they are very thorny aren’t they?
Yes, the thorns are very long and spiky.
Oh, I miss these from our days in France. And now I’m wondering what next month will bring, colour-wise?
Only one more week! We seem to have been in the pink forever!
Those flowers are impressing! I am looking for pink, but without much luck.
I’m hoping for a more findable colour for May. THank you for this fun.
Mmm… well, we’ll soon find out 😉
Lovely photo! There is nothing like that gorgeous pink colour of bougainvillea in a hot tropical climate! I have flowers as the last post of pinks for this month’s challenge https://hairbellsandmaples.com/2021/04/25/life-in-colour-photo-challenge-2021-pink-4-april/
Yes, it is a flower that immediately takes you to a hot country. Do you grow it?
I have two bougainvillea that are confined to pots. If let loose they would probably take over the entire garden. Mr S hates them because of their thorns, and the next door neighbour has a variegated one with white flowers that keeps reaching over the fence to taunt him!
Oooh, I love bougainvillea, and this pink colour is my favourite one. 🙂
I quite like the orange one, but must admit pink and dark reds immediately transport me to the Mediterranean countries. Greece in particular.
Oh yes, the orange one is nice too, as is the paler pink, the dark red…. 🙂 Perhaps this pink is my favourite because it is the first one I saw abroad and thought it was so exotic.
Bougainvillea is delightful. Nice to see ‘your’ one, Jude.
Best wishes, Pete. x
I would like to buy one, but I think they require some heat throughout the winter and my conservatory is frost free, but not warm.
