Title: Plant Photos
Post by: DrDalek6 on February 24, 2013, 21:49:58
Hello going to sperate my photos of the guys with flowers and like, I took these the other week back when we had a few days of warm sun, so here's a bit of colour for you after a long winter and one of my favourites Galanthus (Snowdrops) to start off

This one's a nice little Iris think it's 'Katherine Hodgson'

And finally for the minute a few photos of some Hellebores in fully glory and fully visible seeing as I remembered to chop the old leaves off one better than last year when I only remembered to do that when we were working on that area and I spotted they were in flower but, hidden by the old leaves  :-[

Just beautiful.  Thanks for the taste of Spring.  We just had a small snowshoer here, so it was much needed!  How much do you pay your garden helpers?  :lol:

Lovely photos   :)  - it is great to know that Spring is on the way, even if it hasn't quite arrived here yet!

You are not only a good photographer but a keen gardener as I can see from these gorgeous plants  ;)

Thanks glad to hear that being honest with you my guys get paid mostly in hugs and kisses  :love: unfortunately I'm only a volunteer so if they want anything more than that they'll just have to settle for free biscuits same as me can't afford anything els eexcept maybe a new friend or 2  ;)

Thanks I'm not going to lull myself into a false sense of spring being here for anyone jus tnejoy the colour as it comes and don't be in too much of a rush for spring but, I wouldn't complain at some more of that sun  :)

Thank you very much for the compliment glad you like them, guess my enthusiasm for what I do gardening, photogrpahy and yes toys shows itself I like looking up plants and I used to take a lot more photos of plants on their own and indeed plenty with Action Men guess now it's the Klickies turn in the spotlight  :bloom:

:love: Love them! Especially the last one... almost extraterrestial.. wow! Great job, DrDalek6!

Thanks strangely enough I thought much the same thing when I was taking those last photos those flowers ar jus tso ful and what with the angles I was getting and the lime green colour with the sunlight something about it just worked to that effect  :)

Hello a few more photos for you, was taking some for a story which I'll do in a few weeks I've done the photos I intended to but, if we get good weather and I remember to I mgith take some additional ones before I show the whole thing. Anyway that's for another time well I was there I spotted a very nice Hamamellis (Witchazel) outside one of the entrances strange since I nearly always walk in that way in the mornings and have clearly walked right past it without to much thought
