We are Busy in the Garden
























We are in the garden doing hybridizing. It means up at 4:30, watch out for the deer, keep the fences in tact, choose the plants, get the pollen before the bees do, do the crosses, enter the data, take the photos, enter the data, post to the web, and resort the data. A metaphor for life. But at the end we get new and beautiful hybrids.

















The subtlety of color, the complexity of the patterns and the softness of the petals. Just thought I give all a break! After all Congress will be adjourning before they decide on health care, good idea!
