MOSAIC MONDAY: A Day In The Garden

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:

1. Weeping Caraganan with yellow blooms and some nasty thorns.
2. Rose - unknown variety container size.
3. Tulips - I am partial to black/purple flowers and leaves as you will come to see.
   
4. Bird bath - surrounded by Forget Me Knots. How could I they are everywhere.
   
5. Poppy - the weed variety. Also self sows everywhere. Smells like carrots when you pull them out.
   
6. 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.
7. Calla Lily - very elegant but not long lived in my yard.
   
8. Iris - these purple irises smell just like grape juice or koolaid.
   
9. Maxine - puller of tree roots from my garden beds. Also known as Miss February for the 2010 Tulameen calendar. Superstar.
10. Azalea - pink, no real scent
11. Azalea - orange, amazing scent but the plant is dying.
    
12. Tiarella - tough little plant
13. My new garden gloves and some seeds that may or may not come to fruition this year.
