I really wish I had a better camera, Im using what was a top of the line hybrid from almost 8 years ago a Minolta Z2 at the time I bought it, it was one of the first cameras out with 4.0 megapixels.. Im still using the darn thing.. and Im getting frumpy with it. I ordered a new camera for myself for christmas.. and it was promptly put on backorder. I really want a DSLR but I get greedy becuase I want one that shoots HD video so I can use it for the kids and around 12 mps or better.. of course I could stop buying plants and seeds and such and afford it, but whats the fun of that... =P

I didnt know what one looked better of the pink Pyrethrum dasies.. so I offer two

A early combo, we are a little behind here.. Ive also lost lots of stuff from last years drought.. ah well such is life, it will be replaced by stuff eventually, this years garden will look a tad more spotty hole wise

Tuttie Frutti Lupine.. not as gorgeous as last year.. another plant that didnt like drought.. but did survive, so hopes for it next year

Some No Id TB Iris.. this one I bought.. and its not even close to the name of the thing I bought, since it was supposed to be a fully pink one. So who knows

{{gwi:705718}}

this one I traded for, with another 12 or so from a lady who was parting with her no ids, I took them for a simple swap of a few packets of seeds I think.

{{gwi:705721}}

Oriental Poppy.. Beuaty of Livermore.. lots of orange tones, becuase of the early morning sun.. a little more reddish than this. I think I need more poppy seeds for next year.. Took 3 years to get this one to flower though!
