Spring in The Abandoned - Pink Saturday

Last Spring I took this photo of pink blackberry blossoms.  These are Himalayan blackberry bushes, who's blooms are usually pure white.  I am of a mind the pink hue found in blackberry flowers of The Abandoned, might be due to the strange nature of the place. I have never seen pink Himalayan blackberry flowers anywhere else.

This flowering plant has the softest leaves in the world.  They're so soft one might think they really are the ears of a sweet little lamb.

These beautiful pink roses are found outside the commons area--the remnants of a once-lovely garden space.

Springtime in The Abandoned - Pink Saturday

The grounds surrounding The Abandoned hold many surprises, including this gorgeous rhododendron nestling next to the bark of a pine tree.

These fragile pink blooms grow outside what used to be the commons, where people would eat lunch next to the now non-existent ceiling high windows.

Outside the office area windows one can find springtime blossoms gracing the trees and reflecting back from the broken windows.

Wild Flowers of The Abandoned - Pink Saturday

Sissy and I were amazed.  Before last summer, neither she, no I had seen pink blackberry blossoms before--but here they were, in The Abandoned.

This is a star flower which is so lovely next to those delicate leaves.

Here is a summertime flower from the parking lot--it's a lamb's ear.

Happy Pink Saturday to all.  For more wonderful things in pink, visit Beverly at  How Sweet The Sound!
