What is your name again?

[ewkaw]

Such a pretty white bush that I can never remember what it is called. Every time I have to ask someone or check in Google. Every. Single. Time.

Garland spiraea

An easy-growing one, as I see it often along the roads, roundabouts, or in the middle of highways. This one here is grown in the garden. For many years in the same spot and every spring it gives a show to remember.

Millions of tiny white flowers on long, thin twigs that bend with the weight of the blooms. It looks amazing... cascades of white.





All this happens early in the spring. Then the flowers drop their pretty little petals and slender, light green leaves take over. It will stay green and grow new branches for the rest of the year. In the late fall drop the leaves too.

There is another thing I like about this plant. When it blooms (after later too, but on the flowers in it is more visible) is a home to various spiders :) Sounds weird? Those of you that like to shoot all the little creepy monsters would appreciate it too.

Last time I found 4 different spiders on one bush, but I am pretty sure there were plenty more. They just hide well. It is also often visited by flying pollinators (for the spiders to hunt, of course). So there is always something to shoot, or just observe.





Some plants growing behind and tiny birch leaves created this nice bokeh. Credits for that go to Sigma lens. I know it can do it with the right light and angles. I have had this lens for some years now, and it still amazes me.

These are really pretty, but I also don't know the name of it.

[ewkaw]

Most of the plants is just "white blooming bush... you know.. the one in the garden" :D

[ekavieka]

That is such a beautiful flower, and great shots my friend.
Google is our lovely companion to get the id of the nature that we shoot isn't it?

[ewkaw]

Thank you!
Oh yes.. its pretty handy :)

[fanigunawan]

Wow, it's very beautiful and interesting to take photos of beautiful flowers... In my country, I don't think there are any other types of flowers like that... Wow, these flowers are so beautiful... bro @ewkaw 👍

[ewkaw]

Thanks! Your country has so many flowers we dont have...

[fanigunawan]

OK, you're welcome sis @ewkaw 👍

[isdarmady]

The flower emits perfect pistils because it blooms very well.😆

[furkanmamplam]

Some of the shots of some of these types of flowers are very beautiful, indeed sometimes google lens does not detect the names we want, I also sometimes do not find the name of the object I am looking for on google lens.

[ewkaw]

Google lens is helpful, but it can be a complete miss too. A bit of research is needed. Its all there.. waiting to be found.

[amiegeoffrey]

Beautiful shot you got there.

[ewkaw]

Thanks :)

The appearance of the very beautiful flower picture, this is the first time seeing the beauty of the flowers in black and white effect, certainly very beautiful, sir.

[ewkaw]

Thank you!

[bananaklatbarat]

You are welcome, sir

[aquagelas]

The bouquet of speria flowers is really very beautiful, maybe if I find this type of beautiful flower in my place then I will be able to photograph it all day because I am really amazed by the beauty of the photography you share.

[ewkaw]

You can photograph any flower you want and make it look amazing. Why looking for a specific one?

[aquagelas]

Yes, that's right, I always try to take beautiful photos of the flowers I find, and that feels more fun than having to look for a particular flower, but the flowers you shared look very beautiful😊
