Pink-Ade-licious

This rescue desert rose, nicknamed ' King Denio' is so floriferous!

I love it! I keep meaning to do something like that for a banner but get so short on time, but one of these days I'll get to it. Beautiful banner, Gigi!

And that flower looks very similar mine that's currently blooming.

Very pretty banner, Gigi! Thumbs up
Can you do it with a black background?
King Denio would really pop out royally. Smiling

Just amazing how blooms give us so much joy & satisfaction,
especially in the spring after so much rough weather.
Life is so tenacious even when it seems all is lost. It hangs on, starts again
& gives us incredible pleasure, hope & new strength to keep going.
Love your zest for life & adeniums. Thumbs up
Onward & upward everyone! Smiling

Good call Cal, it will not be perfect because the inside background from the original photo cannot be edited but it does make the bloom pop out.

This cut out is a little bit crude looking but looks ok on a tiny phone screen (just don't blow it up big Hilarious! )

You are Welcome! and Thank You! for the Acorn tip! I can't wait to see your adenium wake up and start blooming! It will be beautiful one now that you have it root pruned!
