    Photos unavailable at this time. But I can probably send you pictures of what my plants would look like if they were growing someplace but here. :-D

    Lovely! I have a lot of crocosmia lining my driveway, they are all aflame with color and so pretty. The wildflower mix and a few of my lilies are still blooming too.

    Beautiful pictures. I am afraid you wouldn't want to see many of the pictures of what is growing in my garden now. August seems to do in most of my stuff.

    Those photos show exactly why we are gardeners. The incredible beauty of Nature. A good photographer doesn't hurt either. We still have a lot of flowers here, just been too lazy (oops, should of wrote busy) to photo.

    Do you have a link for that program Eileen? I'm sure others may be interested in labeling their photos like you have as well. Is it a free program?

    My daughter installed the programme for me Frank when she upgraded my computer. When I click on it I'm taken straight to ACDSee and there's no web address showing. I'll ask her all about it next time she visits though.

    I guess I do still have a few things that look pretty good.

    I don't know what variety of petunia this is but I hope I can find them next year - they did very well.

    This phlox is in full bloom now in front of my porch - it smells wonderful.

    The wild sweet peas are entwining themselves through my yucca.
