Share your photo of 3 flowers. Week 2 // @ wendyalexa
Hello everyone, I would like to share the flowers that adorn the garden of my building, since my balcony is small, I only have space for cacti and I am hoping that one day they will give me a flower.
Thanks to the contest organizer @hafizullah, this is the link for them to participate.
