great shots Mike. Love that big lily pad plant. Is that hardy?? Was the Fatsia inside or outside?

Thanks Tim. I know the fatsia is brought inside as a lot of the other stuff is. They have a huge Christmas display indoors and many other shows. The lily pads range, some are hardier than others. As for the large ones, I'm not sure if they are hardy or not. We have small ones in our pond that are hardy, don't think the large ones are for some reason.
Here is the link to the garden site...Worth a trip if you're ever in the area.

Perfect time for that eye candy!
How beneficial for the public when a community spends money to create that kind of beauty.
Here, they're yakking about building bike paths...ya, with 6 months of winter...the morons.

If I ever win the lottery, I'm building a conservatory.
And never again stepping outdoors. 😉

Your photos are always National Geographic quality, Mike.
Stunning.

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Yes, somethings are and more will pop in the summer. 😀 I think I have more seeds than I can handle right now. Be careful what you wish for. 😆
