It's a pity.
In Germany it is restricted to give water to one own's plants in the garden. So there began the same process of drying.
Your first photo expresses this situation very good. The others do alike but the first one succeeds most, in my eyes. Because the background seems to be dangerous to the bloom.
What do you mean by "it is restricted to give water to one own plants in the garden"?
That sounds terrible. Why?
It is forbidden to give water to your plants especially lawns outside the house. The water is on a rationed basis dedicated for drinking only.
Wow, that sounds like Bulgaria 30 years ago :)
That's not funny, I know.
