Oooh... I just love all of your collages! The plant that most caught my eye is the white-and-blue streaked iris, so I'm glad to see that there's another post about only that. Way cool.
Your flowers are delicious! So many varieties of hostas, ferns, and azaleias. Is that an orange one? I saw an orange years ago in a garden, but have never seen one for sale. You take the best pictures!
Dearest Kim ... always a delight! 'Batik', the gaudiest flower in my garden, was a purchase last spring. It's very happy with its new friends and I love it!
Thanks Beckie! The orange is an exbury azalia. Twenty years ago it began its life on a too sunny hillside with 2 other friends and now rests peacefully in semi-shade retirement. I do love azaleas, rhodos, ferns and hostas, don't I? May is my favorite month in which many favorites richly shine in simple splendor.
OMG!! You have yummey recepies!
Thanks for visiting my blog. You have wonderful pictures here - I will be back.
