Columbine in shadow

The columbines look very good this year. They respond very well to an acid fertilizer in the spring, and the flowers are big and plentiful. Here is one pretty one in a shaft of sunlight, with some rose campion in the foreground.

Maple Valley arboretum

Had a great time vending at the Plant Sale at the Lake Wilderness Arboretum in Maple Valley, WA last weekend. This view of red Japanese maples in the afternoon light looked almost like fall colors.

Book Mobile

Went into a neat bookstore and bakery, Ada’s, on 15th Ave. in Capitol Hill in Seattle. A very different kind of place, just right for science nerds of all kinds. I loved the Calder-esque mobile hanging up there, and the pages of text make it a “bookmobile” of a different sort.

Plum blossoms in black and white

I don’t usually have difficulty choosing one image to post, but sometimes I just can’t decide. The one with the sun showing, or not?
