Last summer's blooms

  

These beautiful roses are near my apartment.

A few years ago I had purple petunias. Then I went back to red geraniums. I wonder what I'll do this summer.

We did learn what this strange bloom is, at the Arboretum...but I've forgotten now.

We were there early in growing season...I'd like to go back and see plants all over that tower.

    1. I just threw caution to the winds...let's enjoy what we have...and the grey winds of winter might not be so inspiring, so then there are the files of zillions of photos! And here it can be below freezing at night, and in the 60s the next day...more days than not in February this year. I keep wondering if this is real spring. The birds think so!

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
