| Great shots, but you need to tell us what the flowers are...please, especially that last one! I have been trying all summer to get a picture of the large carpenter bees that we have visiting the flowers....so far, no luck. |

| The first three are hibiscus..rosa-sinensis I think. The bee is working his/her magic on my beans....and the last is...........sweet corn... |

| The sweet corn is the most interesting to me. Earlier when I posted wild flower pictures, I tried to identify them before I posted. Now I know a new plant. We don't really look at the things around us, but a camera isolates the details. |

| I didn't realize sweet corn could be so pretty. Nice pictures. |

| Thanks for the compliments....helen, your right...we tend move so fast about our daily routines its easy to miss the little things. So...stop and smell the roses....or the sweet corn.... |

| What a pretty hibiscus! Haven't seen one like that yet..and I live on the island of hibiscus! |

| Hi missfourseasons.....this is more of a tree/shrub than others I've seen....6 - 10 feet in height....3 - 4 feet in diameter. Just transplanted a couple of days ago. |

| Now, see, and here I thought I was pretty observant. I would never have guessed corn. I think digital cameras have been the greatest invention in 100 years! Those macro shots make us really look. Will you have to bring the hibiscus inside this winter? |
RE: A few garden shots

| I'm not sure....I've been told they will survive with a good mulching....I'll have to do some checking before winter arrives. |
