Another specimen from my late Dad's 'collection' - hibiskus blooming every year with multiple gorgeous hot red flowers. It stopped blooming after Dad had passed away. I care for it. It looks healthy and has beautiful green leaves but not a single flower since that time. ----- Olympus C-8080WZ

Once upon a time... Garden poppies invaded my garden. They were everywhere. They were killing my Mom's favorite lilies. I eventually managed to get rid of them. Now I know that I should have let them stay. Lilies are almost gone (all but one). Goat weed is thriving. ----- Mamiya 645AF + Fujicolor Pro 160S

Another sample of my late Dad's favorite flowers - fuchsias this time. They were hanging around our house and Dad managed to keep them appropriately watered. But this shot was taken just after a summer rain. ----- Olympus C-8080WZ

Epiphyllum Ackermanii - my Dad's favorite flowers. They used to bloom in July (for his name day: July 20). Dad cared for them for many years. Then (when he was getting older) he neglected them and eventually put them in a far corner of a garden shed. More than a year after Dad had passed away I found three pots of them there. They seemed to be totally dead but I took a piece of one and planted it in fresh soil and pot. It took several months to see it awakening and in May this year it produced its first flower. But this is a shot of my Dad's flowers taken 17 years ago. ----- Olympus C-8080WZ

This evening I went to my garden to get some fresh grass for my (guinea-)piggies and I couldn't resist taking some shots of those apple tree flowers. ----- Asus Zenfone

Days are now so short, cold and dark that instead of going out with a camera I am browsing my digital archives... ----- Olympus C8080WZ Best seen on black - press [Z]

My grudnik tells me that winter is coming. In Poland we call it grudnik (like grudzień - December) because it blooms mostly in December. - - - - - Asus Zenfone

It's the time you spent on your rose that makes your rose so important... People have forgotten this truth, but you mustn't forget it. You become responsible forever for what you've tamed. You're responsible for your rose. [ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince ] ----- Olympus C220Z My first digital camera :) Great Looks, Great Value and Outstanding Performance Olympus CAMEDIA C-220ZOOM I bought it in July 2002. Learning curve was steep ;)

press [Z] ----- Olympus C8080WZ ----- I still have to learn how to care about these flowers and other houseplants around me. It was my Dad's task to maintain them and he made a great job of it. I don't...
