Love them both

My first priority is to add new pictures to the data base. As far as posting them in a thread as to what is blooming in my garden I don't worry as much. There seems to be almost no interest so why take the time?

Heat today bent over some MTB stems, not the usual problem. 3 of 4 MTB seedlings are in bloom, took pictures--here are those from last year.

We all are interested, Paul--just busy during the season ourselves. How are you going to decide what to do about your seedlings?

Paul, maybe post them in the winter time, when people are on the computer more?

Sue, I think that bee is tired out from visiting all your plants. He sure looks it, how funny.

Sure, aren't very many on lately. But I do enjoy the ones I see.

Hey Paul, I'm very interested in seeing your iris pic's! It's just that I'm really busy right now and often just check the pictures out and then close because I have something else I'm rushing to do. But I love seeing your seedling and other pictures! So please keep at it, OK? My irises are now done -- bummer! But I still have pictures to post... And right now I'm heading over to the Daylilies Forum to post pictures while I'm still trying to watch the Amgen Tour De California, which is in BAKERSFIELD today! Yea!

Sue, I love your BEWILDERBEAST pictures! What a great bee shot!

I LOOK at all the picture threads but I don't often comment. I think it is the same for lots of us. Things are very busy this time of year and I have had a lot of planting to do.

Sometimes I think I comment too much, But then other times the system won't let me add a comment, just must be a bug in the soup, but Ken your pics are really appreciated, and you helpful comments on crossing and germinating seeds is helpful too.

I really enjoy all your photos you share Paul, as well as everyone else, just soooo busy planting, working on the new drip lines, taking pictures and adding them to the database. I often just take note of a bloom that interests me, sometimes adding it to my Want list, throw a couple of shots in a post and then don't take out too much time to comment. Otherwise I wouldn't get anything done. But don't stop posting, we are getting plenty of views here in the threads!

Apparently everyone is busy so I'll wait til winter......

Sue -- I love your bud shot!!

For me -- I love seeing what's blooming in everyone else's gardens -- especially now that mine are done. It extends the Iris season for me. Also -- it creates a frame of reference for making up the want-list for ordering for my own gardens. Seeing pictures in real life are better than seeing a touched-up shot in a sales catalog.

Not much blooming here, I live vicariously through everyone's photos.

The problem I have when folks post pictures to the database, is that they show up along the right side of the forum.... And then I find just one more, I have to have! Of course, I have the same problem when I look at the photo threads

Lucy I like the 3rd one it has pretty beards and a good color I like the contrast.

Oh my, I LOVE that Patchwork Puzzle!! And look at the ruffling on Rippling River! And what cool edges on Super Model.

I love Tour De France. Rippling River is well named and lovely.

Beautiful pictures everyone.
I need to water today.Its quite dry here.Rains all around us but we havnt had any really good rain for weeks.

I really like Rippling River, really pretty, Glad to see what Toranto looks like, mine won't be blooming this year, it's nice too. And I won't see my Starship Enterprise this year, has lots of increase, but no blooms. It's my first bloom season with ETP, and I love the chance to share my excitement, and feel all of yours as well. Things are moving fast here, lots of new ones each day, I can hardly keep up with the pictures. Famous Last words is really lovely, nice broad shoulders.
