Garden Photos - Part 34
cool pics. I haven't seen any PM in my yard this year. Last year and the year before, I found them in my Sweet Autumn clematis when it bloomed. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled.
Nice sunflowers wha - I want to do a bunch next year. So does my neighbor.
Willie-that cactus flower is amazing!!
Celeste - I still can't believe that you have DL's!!!!
He's dining out tonight?? LOL
Backside of Geranium 'Blue Sunrise', in bloom now..which looks alot like 'Johnson's Blue' if you ask me.
You doesn't have to call him Johnson...
Front view, one new bloom and one older.
Thats was a terrible picture!! LOL
Bee's enjoying the Thistle
Sedum
Dogwood Tree is full of berries.....my feathered friends should be very happy!
Nice sedum shot. My Rozanne geranium is still blooming like mad.
This one reminds me of a snow flake.
Queen Ann Lace and Goldenrod

'Pearl Boland' is one I'd LOVE to have but it's not for my zone.
beautiful shots all... I haven't seen any PM this year
love that Elke
Sue Crug looks nice. How long do they bloom though? That's what's so great about Rozanne. It's non-stop from late May or early June.
Well Victor, i'm thinking if I own them all I'll have at least one in bloom at any given time. ^_^ Like my thinking? lol
Sounds good!
I get to bored when I have to play nurse and im stuck in the house.
Victor, can't wait to show DH your amazing PM shots. Very fine. Best ever! I haven't seen any this year. Sad. Yummy dindin too! Patti
Thanks, Patti. Wish I had the macro lens attached at the time - I think they would have been better. I took my old camera out a bit later and he was still there. These three were using it. He had found a new victim - some fly.
Another.
Yelling at me!
Love PMs. It is soo cool to have them track your movements. As they move their heads and bodies it is mesmerizing. One year I took an egg case into the house not knowing what it was to see what would happen, but didn't have it contained. I think you know what is going to happen now, don't you. One spring day we had the windows open. The case was on my DH's desk in our bedroom. He went back to do some work and I hear a commotion so I go running back and all over the desk were teensy, little PMs. It seemed like thousands. ( I exaggerate), so I swept them up and took them outside cuz I had just hit the mother lode. I hoped they stayed to take care of my pests. Anway I learned a valuable lesson that day.
victor, that is oak leaf H isn't it? It looks great. Great shot of the patio.
Victor that last one makes me think of Cornholio
Yes - Oakleaf Pee Wee. Thanks.
Yes, Allison, it does.
glad you know what I was talking about
:)
Actually I didn't - had to google it!
Anybody remember the vintage movie "The Fly" ? " Help me, help me. " ( said in a squeaky, little voice) That's all I remember about that movie is that line. It always sends shivers down my spine. That's what I thought of seeing the PM with the fly.
Yes, I remember it. Freaked me out as a kid.
Doh!
I'm so stupid
love this stuff

That one I know! Was never a B & B fan.
no matter what... they always made me laugh.... amazing how the little things amuse me
Victor, your PM shots are fantastic, but I think I got "bugged" out today after veiwing several camel spider clips on youtube. Your dinner on a dime PM shots just sent me over the edge.
Celeste, you have so much stuff looking great! The half blue/half white MG is stunning. Hope hubby does well and you can get out of the house.
Wha, our fruits are certainly similar!
Thanks, Weeze. Never heard of camel spiders. One hump or two??
Oh I just had to google them YUK! Glad to know they aren't venomous.
Great pics Celeste, I love that Larry Grace, I like that Album geranium.
Great pm pics, Victor, I didn't know they ate bees!
Here's my rescued rose opened
