Last month when I did my Yellow round-up, I said, "It will be interesting to see if I can find any pink in the garden at the end of April." I don't know if it is interesting, but I found way more pink than I was expecting!
Let's deal with the scrappy sewing first, so you can skip the flowers if you are not interested. This month I made five pairs of Scrappy Sprouts leaves:
I will link this post to the So Scrappy RSC link-up when it is available on the weekend.
Here's the SoScrappy Saturday link-up.
In the garden I found pink roses:
Hakea "Burrendong Beauty":
Pink leaves on this ajuga:
Two pink salvias. First Salvia leucantha "Velour Pink":
Tiny thryptomene:
First camellia flowers of the year!
So delicate looking.
Not quite so delicate, this Billbergia:
The abutilons are flowering again, after being given a severe prune some months back:
And last of all for this post, I found the first cyclamen flower of the year about to open:
I wonder what next month's colour will be?

Such pretty pinks. I love your scrappy leaves and hearts.
So many beautiful pink colors - on patchwork and flowers. Marie
Pink pink everything pink--such lovely blossoms...all that we have so far are the daffodils--and it's so windy and cold still...nothing else has peeked out...
I love your "Sprouts"--so pretty..nice work for April RSC
hugs, Julierose
Beautiful shades of pink, both flora and stitching your pieces.
Your flower garden is gorgeous. Your garden must be larger than the park near where I live. The hearts and leaves look very sweet.
Glad you included foliage in your pink roundup. Often overshadowed by flowers, these plants add so much to your garden. Your scrappy pinks are lovely.
Lovely pink blocks, Vireya. And there are beautiful pinks on your garden, thanks for sharing those beauties with us.
Lovely blocks and nice to see the pink flowers are still blooming.
Ohh I luv the extra bonus of pinks in the garden!
Very pretty pinks - both fabric and flora!
As always, such gorgeous flowers but I think this time they have some stiff competition from your pretty blocks, LOL! Love the pink in your ajuga, mine tends toward burgundy. I had the light green ones one year but didn't like them as much.
