I am Lady Banks Rose

by Self Sagacity at 12:21 AM

It's Monday morning and you're not up to it, but you know your flowers. So, which flower is Lady Banks Rose? The bluish purple or the yellow?
If you don't know, just take a guess anyways before you look it up.
See if you can place the name with the flower. If you want to check your answer see the comment section.



Don't you just love the name?  Another great name is a type of pearl from a jewelry box that was given to me last year: Luminous Lady of Pearl. Sweet, huh?
Have a wonderful Monday

    I'm guessing the pale yellow is the Lady Banks Rose. Both are lovely too & yes I do think the name is wonderful!

    the rose is lovely and lobelias are great to. The colors blue and yellow match perfect as it is the color of the Swedish flag :-)

    What gorgeous photos! I love the vibrant blue, but I also love the dainty yellow. I have no idea which is the Lady Banks, but I'd take either any day.

    I like both flowers very much. Since this is Blue Monday, perhaps the blue one it is Lady Rose. I will click to see if I am right.

    i am not really good in naming flowers. to be honest with you. i can count in my fingers the flowers that i know. but what i really know is that i love flowers in all colors, sizes and shape. and i love taking photos of them.

    I didn't try to guess the name because I know just the look at them I can't even pronounce their names. hahaha. thanks for sharing

    The yellow I'm thinking. I like the blue and yellow together. :)

    I guessed correctly! But they are both gorgeous - I do love the colour of that little blue flower, and also the soft texture of the buttery yellow ones.
