I have no idea what kind of flower this is. It emerged in one of the planter boxes left by the previous home owner. I like the unusual shape, and burgundy color. I think she'll stay.
One thing that impressed me this trip is the number, variety, and quality of the planter boxes related to commercial buildings (the government areas have always been beautifully planted, thanks to the National Park Service etc.). The so-called "K Street Corridor" is now alive with greenery, much of it native varieties, which cheered me. A revolution in the last few years.
Here "just" some hostas, but very handsome.
Urban gardening services seems to be a growth business here.
In its final resting place. Seed has been sown, so hopefully we'll see grass soon. I made this so I can have a few more plants hanging from above and when I water them it will go into the grass box. Plus then I won't need curtains or anything. The grass should also hide the somewhat shoddy application of the woodgrain.
I have seen this mail box topper for years now and have been meaning to get a photo of it. Nothing like a little competition to get you motivated, eh? I took these for the "Made of ..." Challenge.
Not only the wildflowers but the tame ones too have been blooming nicely in our recent warm weather. Spring at last! Although these flowers are tame, you can see that we keep them confined in case they go rogue! Actually, the chicken wire is to keep squirrels and turkeys from digging up bulbs. The deer are fond of tulips, and they tend to nip them off as soon as they come up through the screen, though they'd missed a few in this planter back by the house.

The 19" English Planter gives a finishing touch to any outdoor setting. The slatted and removable bottom allows for planting directly into the planter or for placing a pre-potted plant. Handcrafted of shorea hard wood, using mortise and tenon joinery, these planters will weather proudly for years to come.

These guys love these things. I can throw two or three of them out and in minutes there are Squirrels all over the place.
My grandmother is quite the gardener, and one of my uncles who lives with them constructed this planting box in the center of their driveway.

Some of the plants I bought on my birthday shopping trip to a local nursery.
At about dusk, our 4 to 5 inches of snowfall shows on a planter box. This is an unusual amount of snow here in Northwestern Oregon.
In 1999, after taking numerous courses at the Dundas Valley School of Art, I began a careere in art. A fascination for flowers has compelled me to produce a large body of watercolour and pastel paintings featuring the color and vibrancy of the floral world.

I love this planter box shelf. Homemade jams and jellies are displayed outside the business' door in Fort Bragg, California. So lovely.
