Just to brighten the dreary days of winter.
« on: January 24, 2011, 10:42:59 PM »
I was just browsing through some of the hundreds of pictures on the computer that I took in the garden last year.
Thought I would share a few with you to brighten those winter days.
I know I for one am looking forward to seeing the colour back in the garden.


Gladiolus 'Nanus Nymph'     


Sidalcea 'Rose Queen'     


Clematis integrifolia 'Jan Fopma'

Ditto Malcolm.

We're looking forward with great anticipation and interest to see what comes up in ours.  Anything we've not planted will be a surprise  ;)

Great photos Malcolm and very cheery.

Laurie.

Thanks for cheering me up Malcolm! I agree with Laurie - great photos!

Now - you can guess what is coming next, cant you?
What are the names of those beauties?

Names copied and pasted from that excellent program IGpro ,,,,,,,,,,,(saved me typing and getting the spelling correct)

Thanks for that Malcolm!
When I get back to more work on the Master Database I would appreciate a photo or two!
I showed your website and your WPG to a new contact last night, and I hope she will join us soon :)

It may seem daft  ::) but I have 20,360 digital pictures taken in the last 9 years, just in our garden, of the plants etc. :o

Needless to say they are backed up well. On to a seperate drive on another computer and also to an external drive.

"I showed your website and your WPG to a new contact last night"    :-[ :-[

I have been tidying up our website a bit recently, and archiving some of the static pages that have been replaced by the slide shows.
Looking forward to a new member joining us here.
