Celebrating gardens, photography and a creative life

Beautiful – those bright colors really cheered me up!
I’m very happy to hear that!
Is that ginkgo always yellow, or is that a picture from another time?
It would be wonderful if that colour could last a bit longer, but no, it was from the autumn.
Wow, I thought there might be a golden cultivar out there that I never heard of.
We’d all have heard of it if there was!
I remember when ‘Saratoga’ was popular, particularly in Saratoga. I never liked it. The leaves look like trout tails, and turn only pastel yellow in autumn. So-called ‘landscape designers’ raved about the pastel yellow as if it were an asset.
Lovely rainbow and I can almost smell the sweet-peas 🙂
You’ve made me wonder how accurately we remember smells. I’ve cut a vase of Spanish bluebells from my garden – there are so many packed in, they won’t be missed and I don’t need them to set any more seed. They seem to last a long time as a cut flower. People often say the Spanish ones are not fragrant but mine are and they somehow remind me of sweet peas.
The Spanish ones always remind me of hyacinths. Maybe a similar fragrance?
They remind me of them too, physically at least.
Beautiful colors in these photos!
Thanks, Lisa!
