What makes a better mosaic than pictures from your garden.
Mary @ Little Red House has invited us over for her meme
Mosaic Monday. I just happened to take a few pictures today while I was in the yard. Head over to Mary's site and link up to show us your mosaics. Now looking at Mary's mosaics I know I will have to put more thought into my next one. Hers are spectacular.
Clockwise from the top left:
- Weeping Caraganan with yellow blooms and some nasty thorns.
- Rose - unknown variety container size.
- Tulips - I am partial to black/purple flowers and leaves as you will come to see.
- Bird bath - surrounded by Forget Me Knots. How could I they are everywhere.
- Poppy - the weed variety. Also self sows everywhere. Smells like carrots when you pull them out.
- Lilac - was in my yard but moved over the fence many years ago so I could have a compost bin in that spot. We share the scent.
- Calla Lily - very elegant but not long lived in my yard.
- Iris - these purple irises smell just like grape juice or koolaid.
- Maxine - puller of tree roots from my garden beds. Also known as Miss February for the 2010 Tulameen calendar. Superstar.
- Azalea - pink, no real scent
- Azalea - orange, amazing scent but the plant is dying.
- Tiarella - tough little plant
- My new garden gloves and some seeds that may or may not come to fruition this year.
Thanks for visiting. Please leave a comment and check out the other mosaics.

Wow, Lori, your garden is amazing! LOVE black tulips! thanks so much for joining Mosaic Monday. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful mosaic...I LOVE all things with flowers. Purple is my favorite color...sometimes I look at my garden and realize I should add other colors...but it's so hard, I'm just drawn to purple. Have a grand day!
ReplyDeleteOh I love that you labeled them. And I love the center photo that "sets the stage." I'm sorry about your orange azalea. Is there nothing that can be done?
ReplyDeleteLori, it looks wonderful. I love the colors.
