One of the pictures from my walk around the botanical garden here in town. Up at the potting shed, this wooden platform holds containers to be filled with dirt and plants to be nurtured before being planted or sold at the weekly Sunday sales. This is a flower fallen off a nearby tree – don’t ask me what the name of the tree is! – and I thought it was so lovely against the grain of the wood.

Rose
After coming home from the botanical garden yesterday, I inspected my own small garden. This is a pink rose with a heavenly scent – but I like it better in B&W as far being a photo!
Containers
Today I finally got out to the botanical garden! The sweet scents – all these flowers and trees in bloom – hard to believe. Peaceful, tranquil. I took lots of pictures of the plants, which will come later. As always, though, I love to go up to the potting shed and nursery area to snoop around and see what is going on there. Wheel barrows sometimes, other times rocks. Today it seemed that pots and containers were on parade.
Containers and bins for dirt and leaves as well as new plants waiting to be sold or added to the garden. Storage shed to the left, nursery to the right.
Remembrance of Tomatoes Past(e)
Accidental double exposure on an Oly Trip 35 a few years ago – tomatoes that became passata and which we are in need of replenishing. Now that the rains are done and it is warming up, I may be inclined to start a bunch!
