I have decided to join the blogging craze. I am looking forward to taking a moment to find out a little more about the plants I have been photographing. I hope to explore all aspects of plants, flowers, trees and other garden related topics. Sorry about having to watermark the photos but there are a lot of people using them without permission.

Last of the Impatiens
Impatiens
Impatiens walleriana

Glad to have gotten a picture of my hanging Impatiens flowers before they turned black in the freezing temperatures we have had at night. The growing season is really over now although a few flowers here and there seemed to hang on but have that funny look to them (like they came real close to freezing to death).
The Impatiens looked real nice hanging down a steep wall by the swimming pool. We just mixed the colors and it all worked out nicely. Definitely something I will consider doing again next year. Plans are already starting to whirl for next season and my general opinion is to try a few new things and capitalize on what worked in the past.
I must be on some sort of list at the P.C. Richards Theater in NYC as we again won tickets for the private Duffy show. It was really fun and she and her 14-person band sound great. I didn’t know Welsh women could be so hot! (:lol:). Had a great time and enjoyed the tracks from her new album, which is due out in a couple of weeks.
