    I can't believe that I still have one daffodil left. All the others were done blooming by February :shock: :)

    this is the first shared pic with my new camera. the blossoms are a bit the worse for wear but beauty is really beside the point with this pic.

    has anyone ever seen these? they're called rainbow roses.
    I'm a florist and have never even heard of them, I'm on a mission now to get them in the shop!

    ive been looking at these pics for a few days now. ive decided i dont like those roses.

    roses are so naturally beautiful, why would someone do this to them???

    roses are gorgeous naturally for sure, but i guess I'm kinda quirky, i have a soft spot for bright contrasting colors, i think they look neat, not something I'd use for a wedding, or prom, but maybe a birthday or something, its the explosion of color I like in them :ugeek: but i checked it out and they run for about 90 bucks for a DOZEN! :shock: thats just ridiculous!

    Thank you. It is. It's a rare hibiscus as well -- the petals are ribbed (I hate that word ;))
    These are from last year. Mine usually blooms in late July, early August.

    oh my,
    I remember the very first time I saw a lilly pad in the real world. I had a childhood book that had pictures,
    not real pictures but pretty bright drawings,
    and I didn't know they were a real flower til I was a teen floating in a lake at my boyfriends cottage. It was a surreal event to realize they were real, right there floating next to me:D
    just beautiful

    One of the lower, shade gardens along the river. Notice the little cabin?
