Colour for a Rainy Grey Day!

Saved these images for a rainy day,
 when definitely need to see some colour to brighten up the day.
Today, & the past week has been no exception. 
 Downpours of rain only offering grey dull days!

Whilst on travels to The Netherlands in the Autumn,
 exploring Amsterdam,
 we visited the Flowermarket.


A street, crammed with market stalls,
 selling a huge variety of garden bulbs,
 seeds, pot plants, fresh cut flowers,
& items for the tourist,
 anything from fridge magnets,
 to the blue & white china associated with Holland.




Cabbage flowers,
 a selection with
 either white or purple centres. . . .




Masses of Sunflowers. . . .


I've  never seen so many cacti in flower. . .




Bunches & bunches of roses. . . .


Not forgetting the Dutch Tulips!
