Pink: It's Not Just for Flowers Anymore

Hi y'all! I just love, love, love your comments! Heather, likened the Halloween House [previous post] to the Bates' Motel. Clever, girl! And "Danger Garden" asked if I did a drive-by on Halloween night to see what might be lurking. Darn. It was probably the sugar high that distracted me. Speaking of drive-by shootings, I hope I'm not offending anyone for my usage of this negative colloquialism. With possibly presumptuous literary license, I figure it needs a positive connotation. Let's start a movement!


Euphorbia x martinii 'Red Martin' olive green in summer, it likes to blush as the mercury drops.


Drive-by: Autumn at its finest. Kudos to the designer of this tableau.

Hydrangea serrata 'Preziosa' The aging flowers and the blushing foliage...eye candy

This gap is pissing me off. I don't know how to fix it. ....
