Garden Photos of '09.....#21

Shelly, that first shot is gorgeous!

hi debbi

Shelly, what is the first one and can it handle east coast z7??

It looks so otherworldly. You always seem too have such dramatic lighting in your photos, Shelley.

Good morning. Just having a cuppa of java. Lots of great pics to see! It's nice to see everyone's garden booming. Just a few from yesterday. Here comes the MayDay

Nanking cherry

Moss phlox - mauve

This looks interesting

On of my fav combos 'Apricot Delight' with muscari (although the tulips look more pinky than apricoty to me)

Wow - miss one day and miss a lot - beautiful shots!

I agree about that gorgeous blue shot, Shelly. You seem to be always out at sunrise and sunset for that great lighting!

eye of the tiger iris

Aka, Mr. T?

Is that a cornflower, Redchic? Love the blue!

Thanks folks!

Venu..... the first picture is of a bachelor button. It's an annual, but it should do just fine there! They reseed themselves enough that you rarely have to put out seed more than once. Here, they grow wild, so I don't have to do anything other than go for a walk somewhere!!!

Thanks Dyane, yes.... I do love to check out all the angles to see which is the most dramatic. Not sure why though!?? However, all the trees in my yard do a very good job of creating streaks of light with lots of shadows!

Love the blues!

Since we're close to 300 posts again (so quickly!), I'll start a new thread.
