Thanks, it’s off to a slow start as it got all dug up this winter and the weather has been cold. But I’m enjoying every little blossom to its fullest! Glad you enjoyed them too!
Yes, I often think that our NW foliage looks tropical in the spring…I think it’s because there’s so much rain the growth is very lush. Also, getting in very close up (many of these shots are on macro settings) lets the fauna dominate the scene. I grew up in Miami, which was sub-tropical, and I’ve always loved that bursting-with-life feeling of plants. Thanks for stopping by!
Love your garden 🙂

Amazing photos!
Somehow they have a tropical touch. Even with the tulip and the snowdrop.

Thanks! It’s my pride and joy…transplanted from my dad’s garden…my favorite bloom every year. And a favorite portrait model as well. 🙂
