Monet Flowers

Posted by Picasa

Does anyone have an IPad?  Or an IMac and use the apps?  I did this on my IPad with a 2 or 3 dollar app.  It is my own photo.  I have been having a great time with this app and actually I think I am addicted to the app store :).

Interesting Houseplants



Posted by Picasa

I took these photos at the local greenhouse when we went for our annual poinsettia purchase.  Every time I look at these photos I want to go back and buy this trio, I think they would look great together in a basket but so far I have not made it back there to get them...........one of these days :)

Silver Vase Bromeliad


Posted by Picasa

We made it to Reiman Gardens for my birthday last month, the butterfly house was awesome as usual, and their Christmas display was outstanding.  They had several of these bromeliads lining the windows on the way to the conservatory.    Beautiful plants!

String of Pearls or Rosary Plant

Posted by Picasa

This is one of my houseplants,  most people know it by the name string of pearls , (Senecio rowleyanus),  it is one of my favorite plants.  It is a plant that has been in houseplant collections for years, I remember my aunts having this plant but they called it the rosary plant.
