Today's Flowers

The only blossoms here in Ottawa are still found on windowsills.

I don't know what the first flower is, but the sceond is a begonia, and the third is a hyacinth.

Lovely flowers, Judy! Loving your blog! You have some wonderful photos!
You are a neighbor of mine on the Today's Flowers sign in page today, so thought I would come to visit!
That first flower looks a little like a succulent of some sort?

I don't know what the first one is either, I just know that all three are beautiful and well photographed.

They are very pretty flowers for the window sill. I think your first flower is a Kalanchoe blossfeldiana. They come in many colours. I grow mine outside. You can make easily cuttings from them if you want to increase your plant.

The first flower is Kalanchoe.
It is know how "Fortune Flower".
Thanks for posting to TODAY'S FLOWERS

I'm catching on the memes and I see I somehow missed your flower post.
These are lovely - I'm favoring the hyacinth with its striped petals.
