This Is Not An Illusion

This isn’t a trick with the camera where I would place Madeline two feet in behind these tulips to make them look bigger. These Tulips are freakin ginormous. She looks tiny but is actually in the 75% percentile for height for her age. I’ll have to find out where the Mrs bought them and report back here. I almost remember her saying that she got them at some discount store for next to nothing.

Rosa Rugosa Buds Forming 5/23/08

The buds on the Rosa Rugosa are forming and it won’t be long now before these beautiful bushes will be in full bloom all along our coast.  Last June 22 I took some pictures of these bushes at Good Harbor Beach and they were full of fragrant blossoms.
