detrick

here's another...

and another...

and don't forget this one...

okay another...

sheesh, they keep coming...

finally...

tucsonplumeriaz - is that Detrick?? Can't remember now. Anyway, these pics are nice. Looks like you're a daisy kinda guy.

Now, would you step back a bit and give us a pic of the whole? I'd like to see how it all looks together.

Mary

Detrick, all very pretty! Your yard? Or were you hiking?

Thanks, D!

mary - yeah, it's detrick. i'll try and grab a pic of the yard. not much to see as a whole. it's more interesting when you look at niches around the yard.

fish_knees - i was hiking through my yard. LOL

i've been casting wildflower seed that i've collected from kitt peak, ua campus and tucson, and the canyons in the catalina mountains. so much stuff is coming up now. it should be quite nice come spring. i need to put up the fence soon as the neighborhood dogs are tearing up the place. oh what i wouldn't do to have marvin the marsian's vaporizer gun!

Wow, D- beautiful! Is all the predator poo in the yard fertilizing them too? ;-D

But seriously- it's so cool that you gathered your seed from the wild instead of pouring them out of a seed packet. I applaud you.

predator poo and pee are hurting some of them. tell me why a dog has to crap right on top of the plant. i just don't get it. sheesh! oh i better stop before i get upset.

here are some more close-ups. i should start identifying them, right?

wow! the rumble of thunder. haven't heard or felt that in a while.

rocks make good niches.

these are coming up all over the place!

this one caught me by surprise! looks like it's going to seed.

this is for all you daisy lovers. well, i think it's a daisy.

thanks for taking a look. hope you enjoyed your visit. i'll stop now before i wear out my welcome. LOL

D, Darlin, you could never wear out your welcome! I LOVE that dark purply-blue one :)

Wow! Great flowers, thanks for the pics. I like the daisy one very much.

If you ever get your hands that vaporizer, I want to borrow it for the 2 legged critters.

D, awesome pictures what is the blue flower?

the blue flower is a california bluebell. i'll try and collect seeds when they're ready.

love the blue bells! they are popping up in my yard now too. one of my favorite wild flowers. nice pics detrick. thanks for sharing!

Lovely!

I have some seeds of the wild Pink Throated Morning Glory...does anyone want some? Jo

Susie

Susie....Dmail me your Address. Be happy to share!

Remember, if I make the round up in March...I will have nothing left to share except some gourd seeds...LOL Jo

It is "True Confession" time.....I said I had Velvet Queen (refering to Morning Glories)...it turns out I DO have Velvet Queen seeds...but they are Sunflowers!! The lovely Blue MG's I have are Star of Yelta.....

I think my error was due to "old age and no chocolates....LOL

Sorry for the inconvenience to anyone. Jo
