Life close up - a photo blog

Another Estes plant I have no idea what it is but cute!

This is one of the great color combos at Estes Park, CO downtown area...LOVE THIS COMBO.

We had a great weekend vacation in Ft. Collins, CO visiting our daughter and husband. Here we are enjoying the flowers in Estes Park downtown area...the stores are so, so...the mountains are cool...the streams are wild...BUT the flowers are fabulous!

Amy's tree in her back yard next to her driveway.

These deserve a second look!

These tiny little guys are one of my favorites.

This is the bloom of a Cleome - Merlot...we received a tray of these from Earl May for free because they were sick...put them in some miracle grow and BAM! They have produced well.

this is a wonderful new asiatic lily in our garden this season and flooded with soft pink flowers.

Here's the update pic for my new "Nick" window boxes!

this has grown well and lays low to ground...lots of blooms.

These are the Lilies that were planted everywhere around our patio when we moved in and dug up most of them and still have a bazillion!

Another white one that is on my "A" list this season.

Day 2 of this lovely bloom...I hope it lasts a long time.

She loves me...she loves me not...she LOVES ME!

This is a Burgundy colored Coneflower that really is not showing well...they are much darker than this.

I don't care what the experts say...Hosta blooms are awesome...look at this shot and tell me they are insignificant!

Brand new...and the changes that occur each day...revealing a little more each day

47 I love your commands! They bring me happiness. 48 I love and respect them and will keep them in mind. 49 Don’t forget your promise to me, your servant. I depend on it. 50 When I am hurting, I find comfort in your promise that leads to life.

It never hurtts to get a blast from the past every once in a while...2004!

We found this new Daisy with frilly peddles...nice and WHITE!
