"Rose - Vavoom"
Luscious orange blooms glow intensely amidst the glossy green foliage and deep mahogany of new growth on this beautiful floribunda. Our featured art captures the attention grabbing effect of these luminous gems of the summer garden.
The ruffled, double blossoms of Vavoom are a focal point in the formal garden tucked away in the southeast corner of the three acre area on the farm affectionately known as "Mommyland". In this portion of the garden, vibrant oranges are intermingled with hues of deep purple; one of my favorite floral color combinations and the theme of this secluded outdoor retreat.

Another gorgeous morning at Highland Park. Each visit brings something new as the season progresses. Here are some images from Friday:

"Bleeding Heart"
Old fashioned bleeding hearts have been a gardeners favorite for years. They are a graceful addition to the shade or woodland garden. Their delicate, pendulous, heart shaped blossoms on long arching racemes lend a touch of romance to the Spring garden. Our featured art for the month is an image of Dicentra Spectabilis, one of the most common varieties available, and one of our favorites.

Went back to Highland Park Friday Morning. Tulips are in full bloom. Yellow Magnolias were in blossom, though there is evidence of damage from the hard frosts we got during April's cold spell. The lilacs are beginning to open as well, though hopefully they will not peak until the Lilac Festival. It looks as though the Rhododendrons will be beginning to open soon. Weather permitting, I plan to go again this Friday. Til then, enjoy the lastest images...

DaffodilsSpent the morning at Highland Park. Tulips, daffodils and muscari are in bloom. A few lilacs are starting to open; azaleas, forsythia and other shrubs are in full bloom. The magnolia trees were just gorgeous. Fortunately the rain held off during my walk; it started to pour just as I was leaving. Here are a few images:

DaffodilsEverywhere around us there are signs of Spring. Nature is bursting to life once more. On my daily walks with the dogs, one of our favorite things to do is explore the back woods. While they hunt for little critters to chase, you can find me exploring for wildflowers. Here are a few pics from one of our recent outings:
