erisian: beautiful photos! the more i look at that sea of daffodils the more i like it. but you'd better save some of those spring flowers for when i come! it's a bit unfair of you to use up all the bloom before that.
conbagui: beautiful flower!
warrior: wow, some really exotic ones there! at least to a swede. but i think the dandelion pics are my favourites.

AnMal Don't worry, there should still be some blooms all through April for you.

The Warrior There are some very unusual ones there.

okyl168 They are nice. What is the purple one at the bottom? I'll probably kick myself when I find out!

Thanks, appreciate it. The top 6 were taken near a little town in Illinois, called Meredosia. It's on the Illinois River: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showt ... st11274617

The next one was taken at Rockome Gardens, near Arcola, Illinois.

The last 4 were taken near my father in laws summer home, on a lake in northern Vermont.

marcello: beautiful!
molly: beautiful too - but how did you get it to grow in that direction :hehe

?

Thanks Eris had to flip it. I am going to get a few more cuz they don't take up much much and only have to feed it 2 ice-cubes a week

@AnMal, when you see the little shoot starting, you can train it by using a stick and that little clip. If you look up orchids, most of them do grow that way, they seem to like it.
They look nice grouped together, I will go hunting when it gets warmer, don't want to bring any home when it is still cold out.

Sorry, no idea, I took it at Tasmania Royal Botanic Garden. See this photo help, it took at a distance.

My African Violets are all starting up again so I thought I would post them. BTW, I made the table cloth too. :teeth

Molly, it seems to me that you have a very beautiful and cozy home.
I like the table cloth very much. She reminds me of my mother's work.

Thank you Carlos. I had to make one for my sister too, I don't like doing anything twice

African Violets are excellent house planets and nice work on the table cloth. :bigthup
