looks like U was a hard one. Thanks to Sree and Priya we have a round up!
Beautiful flowers. Priya's drawings are really wonderful.
I have some photographs of flowers, that I am unable to identify. Can someone here help me with these? I can send the links, or mail them.
Sigma - Thanks for your comments.
I saw some of the wildflowers in your blog. Sometimes it's tricky to identify these flowers because they look so similar to some others. The leaves can be a good sign to identify.
U was hard - I couldn't think of anything! Well done - Priya and Sree.
Thanks for keeping this going, Sree and Priya! The two of you are just way too talented.
My excuse is that I was on vacation. I have one for V though! Yay!
Shilpa, Manisha & Anita - U was a tough one. See you all in the round for V.
