attractive burgundy leaves. The sap of the tree is white which I think is unusual. It's one of my favorites (I have a lot of favorites!)
Poppy Flower (Upstate NY)No, this is not a scene from Little Shop of Horrors (remember Audrey, the carnivorous plant?) This plant looks like it's eating a red flower, but it's actually just a normal poppy flower in the process of opening.
California Blossoms (Rancho Santa Margarita,...My fiance and I recently moved to Southern California and we are fortunate enough to have a small park near our condo. It's called Altisima Park and I love walking up to the park, taking a stroll along the paved path, and returning home in the Cali sunshine!
Blooming Houseplant (Summerhill, PA)This flower was a great suprise yesterday. Grown from a cutting from a friend, and it bloomed just yesterday. It may be a Orchid Cactus, Epiphylum. Anyone know for sure?
Spring Blossoms (Apple Grove, WV)I took these photos in my backyard. This spring all of our fruit trees were full of beautiful blooms.

Garden: Bridal Wreath And Lilac (West Virginia) I just love it when this bush blooms. It gets tiny white flowers all over it. It is so pretty and it is one of the first to bloom. I just love spring and all its pretty flowers. I was told it is called Bridal Wreath.
Garden: Lawnmower In DitchThis was taken of lawnmower driven in the ditch by grandson (Craig). Grandpa came and looked over situation. My grandson had to remove it from the ditch. Summer brings such fun!

Garden: Budding TreeI went out today in the snow to take some lovely photos!

Wildlife: Squash Bug I was getting ready to move one of our outdoor chairs and spotted this fellow. It is a Full Armored Squash Bug.
Cleaning The Garden ShedBoy, when my husband cleans the shed, he makes sure he doesn't miss a spot! What he is really doing is removing all the leaves because we were putting on a metal roof. He found he could get the leaves off faster with a broom than picking them up by hand.
Garden: Unusual CarrotsGuess what I pulled out of my garden bed tonight.
Hanging Out In The GardenMy son is fascinated with the leaves and flowers, in the garden. Here, he is hanging out in the laundry basket, discovering new sights and textures. Gotta love those warm summery days!

Garden: Under the Trumpets In this picture the trumpets are up to 7 ft tall here in Port St Lucie. When I came back from Costa Rica I brought with me some stalks, and the reason I called this picture under trumpets is because of the fact that when they were in full bloom I took the picture from underneath.

Garden: Date Palms (Iraq)With great pleasure, I present these photos. They show a side in my garden. The main and loveliest trees to me are those two date palms. They are of the same kind of fruit. It is the best kind in Iraq and in Basrah, where I live. We call it berhi.
Garden: Purple FlowersThese flowers open up in the morning. By mid-day they are all gone, until the next day when new ones open. On it goes for a long time. They multiply fast which can be used as hedges for fencing
Unusual FlowerThis flower was so different from any other flower I've seen. It's on the small side, and I thought it was beautiful. No idea what it's called, though!
Garden: Eavesdropping BirdOut in the garden, there are good and bad guys constantly plotting and planning on how to rid the garden of vermin. The birds occasionally drop by to listen in and see if they can help.
Garden: English DaisiesThis is the first year I have discovered the English Daisies. They are so small, dainty and petite, just adorable. They did take me a while to learn how to care for them. They are so cute and also come in pinks and reds. I love these little flowers!
Garden: BaptisiaBaptisia, or False Indigo, contributes beautiful spring color. It is a shrubby perennial that needs to be cut back in fall or early spring. The seed pods turn solid black and rattle in the south wind. It is so very blue - I wish it could bloom all summer!
Garden: Perennials We have a perennial garden running the full width of our lot (a narrow city lot) from the house out to the sidewalk. It has gathered a lot of attention and some copycatting!

Blue Flowers In VermontI just love these bright blue flowers.
Garden: Endless Summer HydrangeaThis is the most beautiful my hydrangea has ever bloomed. Two seasons we had late frost and it didn't bloom. It makes me smile!
