    Default A few garden shots

    A planting of a pink water lily, next to my gazebo, in my 1/2 acre pond. No, the white stuff in the pond is not snow but the seed from Cotton Wood trees.


    One of my Peonies. A heat wave this past week wrecked most of my others



    For Judy...a Primula japonica


    A double Columbine

    I am most jealous of the peonies. You'd have to have a green arm to be able to grow them in our climate.

    Really tranquil and beautiful, Ron. Our waterlilies did not come up this year. I am not sure what happened to them. Lovely shots all.

    Cheers,

    I like that PINK double columbine. We are due for 5 inches of rain tonight and tomorrow, so more flooding for us. Maybe i should convert the whole backyard to a pond and go fishin'!

    I have a blue double as well and a cool Columbine with variegated leaves, although the flower is white, would have preferred a brighter color
