It was raining and grey yesterday so I grabbed my camera and off to a favorite nursery. Really lifted my spirits as it always does. Some containers.......

Paul thank you so much for these wonderful photos. They sure lifted my spirits.
It has been raining here for quite some time. We are under a flood watch now.
I think I will take my camera and follow your lead, head to our little local greenhouse and get some photos.

Thanks everyone........I went to a grocery store this afternoon to get my Grand Daughter some chicken fillets. She is always starving after school. In their floral department they had a large container of while lilies. Gorgeous......I'm going back with my camera. Rolling my eyes. Shrug! Whistling

Wow. Paul you are really lifting my spirits. Hurray!
Those are beautiful.
I'm leaving for Portland this morning, for the big Home and Garden Show. I promise to take some photos to share.

I'm going to Salt Lake City this morning for a meeting of the members of Region 12 of the American Iris Society. Part of the program will be slides from Hybridizer Barry Blyth from Australia which should be good. The best part will be seeing old friends.
