I thought this might be fun.
I had been taking pix from my computer window, all season on a month to month basis.
It might be fun for anyone who had a favorite window view ,to show us what you see.
This is the Lasagna Garden started in 2009.

From My Window
That's so clever, JoAnn! Startlingly between March & April, but we had such a great early spring. I have 2 windows in my computer room.....one looks over the front yard & per. beds.......you can tell today is garbage day....at least the lady across the road does take them in...some on our road leave them by their drive forever!

Nice Marilyn.
A fun idea JoAnn. So much growth over time. Is that the world famous giant cosmos rocketing upward there on the left? Amazing.
Robin that is a pretty scene. I love the white fence and of course the great rock edge of that graceful bed.
I have a couple contrasting shots of the side path garden from a window. First is from early Aug. after the reset of the bed and one from today. I have some from last winter that are all white but want to avoid seeing that as long as possible.
and from today after the rain and wind.
Nice beds Pat.
That was the 10 foot cosmos. It reached 10 feet and in a September wind,snapped off.
Its pretty dreary in that spot now. I even moved the Sparklie Spike.
cool idea!
Yes - very nice. I keep saying I will do something similar, but never do. I want to do one per week for a year.
Neat! I have never taken any pictures out the window. I will have to try that someday.
I see some of those 300 lilies you have, Jo!
Great idea Ge! You know what my favorite window is.......
Victor: Thats a great idea .I will start 2011 and post here.I doubt I will pix everyday until April.
Polly: I was in error about the number of varieties.Its 79 .With bulbs increasing over the 3 years I probably have the correct number of plants.
Pixie: What a view OMG
Thanks ge, thats my old oak tree off the back deck...looking through the sliding doors..
One last one.......
Really nice.
I like "from the window" shots.
#1 No standing in the rain
#2Longer total view of a garden area
#3 Feet stay dry
#4 No wind
I could go on !!
August photo...must be that 10 foot cosmo in the background??
Ho Ho Ho what a sight.
That would be a great series, Celeste!
Gorgeous view pixie. Too many trees and hills here for a nice view like that. Such a pretty sight to see every day with that old oak in the perfect spot.
OHHHH You mean my 10 foot cosmos.I have a series on it.
ONLY 79. LOL.
Here's the cosmos journey.

Amazing!
That is an amazing thing to go from a seed to the great tower of NY in only a few months. I have had them get taller than me, not really a great achievement, but nothing like your giants. Very cool indeed.
This was a experiment with Allison.
Pixie, those are gorgeous photos!
nice seeing the photos together like that JoAnn
Awe, thanks Robin!
Took this one this morning as the dawn was breaking......of course there is frost on the ground as it's only 28 here!
HE! he! he!
I hope the little rebloom iris can be seen in this shot.
Its on the front left side.
I sees it!!!
Brave little soul.
I see it too!! "Brave little soul who stood alone..."
Absolutly alone that garden is dead except for Lavander, gawd bless it.
Remember the photo of Pirls casablanca lilies?
I am hot to paint and have started a few imagesof that subject.
This is the first,I'm working on a second larger one.
Nice Ge!! You did a great job!!!!!!!!!!!
I love it already, Jo!
That little iris has a lot of heart. Be sure to give it a good gulp of nutrients next spring.
That is a lovely painting JoAnn. A really serene subject too. Good going.
The moon has been beautiful the last few evenings......
....
It's the beginning of the magic season.
Yes!!
And Harry Potter is out...
