Meade বলেছেন...: Sowing seeds is child's play. Holding the camera steady takes skill.

Is there still enough bloom on Hillary's rose?

Brian McKim and/or Traci Skene বলেছেন...: Zinnias remind me of the time my wife and I moved into my boyhood home to look after my father. He had a medical scare in May and was not doing well. We moved in shortly after and I planted a square yard or two of zinnias-- three or four varieties-- and they soon took off and produced so many blooms that I was able to snip a vase full of them every few days or so, for the entire summer. My father appreciated them and he marveled at the variety and the number coming from that small patch. He passed that September. There were plenty to brighten up the party we held after his funeral. I wish we had a garden here in the desert.; ১২/৮/১৪, ৭:১১ PM
