South Florida’s Vizcaya Museum and Gardens sure has some pretty scenes. If only I could tag this as My Garden!

Hard to know what to call this image, but I love it! Taken from the car while my friend was driving, stopped at one of the LONG traffic lights, this symphony in primary colors really makes me happy.

Here is another post about something you just don’t see every day. This giant sedum heart, at least ten or fifteen feet tall (I heard it weighed several tons!), was a big hit in the lobby area of the Northwest Flower & Garden Show. To see several more floral images that I recently posted from last year’s show, just put NWFGS in the search box at right.

At the Northwest Flower & Garden Show there was something you just don’t see every day, a “wedding cake” made entirely of plant material. Isn’t this slice of “cake” adorable? Be sure to scroll down a few photos for several more I posted last week from last year’s show, or just put NWFGS in the search box at right.

The Northwest Flower & Garden Show has ended but the photos of flowers live on. Here are two beauties: a bookcase full of bouquets and a ravishing and exotic protea bloom below. Be sure to scroll down a few photos for several more I posted last week from last year’s show, or just put NWFGS in the search box at right.

Several bouquets in pale tones and shades of turquoise decorate a bookcase at the NWFGS

Not sure what the real name of this kind of structure is, seen in Florida at the Bonnet House in Ft. Lauderdale, but I call it a boat garage. (Now I’m told it’s a boat house.)

Happy Valentine’s Day! Here is something you don’t see every day. This little trailer and its interior was on display at the Northwest Flower & Garden Show and was shown by Sisters on the Fly, back in the vintage area. You could die from this much cute.

Here’s the outside, too. People were lining up.
