Days 78-84

Day 78
Contorted Filbert at the garden centre.  These are supposed to be absolutely gorgeous in the winter and great for clipping and including in floral arrangements.  
We want one, yes we do.

Day 79
First bud on last year's Mother's Day Rose Bush . . . "Elle".

Day 80
A quilt I made for a friend who loves purple and cats.

Day 81
New Guinea Impatiens "Grape Crush" . . . a sweet surprise from my girl.

Day 82
 A neighbour's flowering shrub features yellow-orange double flowers.
Kerria Japonica . . . thank you google for help identifying this plant.

Day 83
Cool stool at my friend's house.

Day 84
Another day of liquid sunshine in the lower mainland of beautiful British Columbia.

Days 71-77

Day 71
Sun-kissed tulips highlight the texture of the petals.

Day 72
Stone steps and sprawling vines.

Day 73
While shooting an update for my Urban Parks Photo Challenge I captured this little lady nestled beside a fern at the water's edge.  I just love the reflection of the foot bridge that dominates the image.

Day 74
The last of the hyacinth . . . no longer standing erect but still beautiful.  
Farewell until next spring.

Day 75
Quite a few rainy days this week . . . 

Day 76
Granny-love . . . a little blurry but true sentiment.

Day 77
More rain . . . but it made for a lovely picture.  
Reminds me of a slideshow I once watched called "Billboards from God".  There was one that said, "Don't forget your umbrella, I might water the plants today.  ~ God"
