The red is first thing I noticed. But there is lime green & yellow in it’s center. Fine white fur, like a peach, stands on the green stem. Gerber Daisies remind me of fireworks~they are stunning & they were not made to last. I always ooh & ah (awe?) at a firework’s explosion, while I…

Details matter
Some of downtown Birmingham’s buildings shine, even though time should have dulled them. It’s because the details stand out. Someone cared enough to put a face in stone on a border that stands six stories high, just because they could. Now to have a building built…quick & cheap is more important then making a lasting…

People have always been wary of strangers, every generation hated…
Bloom for me
This blossom looks like it should be under water.
God’s pink cotton candy
This is my very last blossom until next year. It has begun to fade to purple. I have about 15 Hydrangea’s around my house, but most are very young & their attempts at blossoms are a bit pitiful. Next thing I’m putting everywhere this fall is Peony! or if not in the fall then next…
