The peony with over 60 blooms, still going. My neighborhood.

Stil blooming, peony with 60  buds this year....

Mountain Laurel

Mountain Laurel is such an exquisite plant, and flower. It reminds me of Origami, and I am sure the idea for origami must have been inspired by this plant.

Foxglove

A stunning white Foxglove from Near Mt Baker

Views from home....

Rhododendren

Japanese maple

Spirea and climbing red rose, and a lovely rambling rose in yellow and pink

Hot lips in a garden of mosses and ground covers, and other sweet
 plants, and plus a pond to catch rain water..

Poppy popping

I call it Poppy Love

for at least 4 years now, only 3 or 4 blooms on this plant..

This year suddenly, over 20 large blooms..

Sometimes it appears nothing of value is going on, Be patient, underground, in places we cannot see,

often dark looking spaces...

An expansive network of intelligence is at work...

Have faith, in THAT..

Foxglove and Blue Sky

A Close up View of a Foxglove...

This Albino Spider inside my peony.....

It has a red spot on each side. Is a crab Spider..

Possible change to one of 4 colors to match the plant?

Hmmm..... A slug eats a shroom....

It took a few days, but it all was eaten, including stem..
