Thread: An agglomeration of plant pictures

    Default An agglomeration of plant pictures

    I struck out in most other fields of art, but so long as the wind isn't blowing too much I can tap a button on my phone. These are just a handful I've taken recently. The files are too large, so only links.

    If this earns any interest I have TONS more pictures (rivaling the memory my apps take up).

    Some lovely pics there

    I wish I was more green-fingered. Our garden at home is a bit of a lost cause. We're gradually taking over next-door's garden with our ivy.

    Yes! Definitely post more! I recognize some of those flowers from my own garden.

    Oooo the ketchup and mustard rose is my favorite! Looking through these pictures really cheer me up.

    Have these images been direct or loading on an imgur page for anybody? Curious to how they're showing up for others.

    I haven't been taking too many artsy pictures lately since summer remembered it is supposed to be hot. Just concentrating on keeping things alive.

    But here's a chunk of stuff I've been working on recently. I just moved a lot of it around today, so it's completely unorganized right now.

    http://i.imgur.com/z04c0B1.jpg (view image > zoom for a closer look in case it's loads on imgur)

    Yes, that is a Bulbasaur pot hiding in there. The Aeonium wasn't doing well in it, so I re-potted it with a cactus that is both more fitting and should do better with little water.
