Cee’s Odd Ball Challenge 2015 – Week 22
…..I’ve wanted to shoot pictures of this store front for awhile
It started out with one mannequin out front and then quickly morphed to more, usually dressed in some hockey gear, plus a collection of sundry items like windmills and old chairs. I thought this was a perfect collection for Cee’s Odd Ball Challenge.
New Flower (May 29, 2015) – Orange Poppy
New Flower (May 28, 2015) – Weeds or Wildflowers
….so many weeds have such beautiful flowers that many people insist that they are wildflowers
I also love seed pods and decaying flower heads. Are you hesitant to pull some invasive plants because of their beautiful flowers?
New Flower ( May 28, 2015) – Double Pink Tulip
…..I’m beginning to see more and more of these double tulips
New Flower ( May 25, 2015) – Double White Tulip
…..I saw this flower from a distance and just had to take a closer look
I was completely shocked to discover that it was a tulip. I had never seen one so full. I thought I was looking at a peony.
New Flower (May 21, 2015) – Pink Tree Blossoms
….so many trees are finally in bloom
New Flower (May 19, 2015) – Lonely Yellow Tulip

New Flower ( May 18, 2015) – Purple and White Tulip
New Flowers ( May 17, 2015) – Daffodils
….all winter I’ve been looking forward to my daffodils popping up in my garden
Okay so what happened? It’s the long weekend in May and not one daffodil in my garden has bloomed. My neighbour to the south of me has had daffodils for weeks now. Several weeks ago I took this picture of her daffodils through our hedge.
Today I spent hours in the garden and I noticed that my neighbour, N, has more beautiful daffodils along the far edge of her garden. Since we’re looking out for her place while she’s away for the weekend I took the liberty of taking some photo of her beautiful flowers. I’m sure she won’t mind.
