Where Did The Day Go!?

The magic of Santos McGill is seen above. Santos seems to be at the garden daily and has taken some of the best images of the gardens that I've seen. He is great at close-ups like this golden bleeding heart (Dicentra spectabilis 'Goldheart') but also has done some wonderful shots like the arched bridge as seen thru a small crabapple. He is kind to share his talent with us as we don't have (or make) as much time as we should to photograph the subtle changes in the garden.



We did three plant runs today. Larry did two plant runs to Jenka Blossoms (Lima Center, WI) to pick up tropicals and hanging baskets and I went to Stonefield Plant Farm to get the rest of the hot pepper plants (for plant sale) and various odds and ends. More trips tomorrow. Lots of plant sale prep the next two days, peppered with trips to pick up plants for the grounds. Below is a nice closeup of Virginia bluebells (Mertensia virginica) by Santos. What a nice shot!
