My daughter's dwarf hydrangea came to live at my house during one of her trips and hasn't made the journey back to her place yet. It bloomed a little later than regular hydrangea but it's been fun to watch.

Tropaeolum minus (Dwarf nasturtium) identified by label at the the Bergianska trädgården (the Bergian Garden), a botanical garden located on the outskirts of Stockholm.
Tropaeolum minus, the dwarf nasturtium is a species of perennial plant in the Tropaeolaceae family. It is endemic to mountainous regions of Ecuador and Peru.
Tropaeolum minus was the first Nastutium to appear in European gardens. It was already widespread in the 16th century, and hence it must have been among the first american plants to be cultivated widely in European gardens.
It is a smaller species tha T. majus L., the well known garden nasturtium, and has lost popularity since the latter was introduced.

📷 Photographer's note:
When I originally posted this photo, I had misidentified it as a blue flag iris (also blue, also native to the eastern United States). I was wrong!

I personally like to place buildings in context of their surroundings, and when you're in mountainous terrain they always look so tiny and frail. The compressed perspective that a 70-200mm can give adds to the drama.....
These beautiful dwarf irises appeared in the garden in Paris about ten days ago but they are so very low to take a photo of so I've just looked at them for a while thinking how on earth am I going to get that low without ever getting back up again! (I know this was a concern for another Flickr friend who successfully managed it when recently photographing his "first crocus shot" so hats off to him!) I decided the only way was to purchase one of those mini-tripods with the bendy legs and lo and behold it arrived this morning so I put it to use straightaway and et voila! I hope I've done the dwarf irises some justice as they look stunning in a little purple clump in the garden.
One from my last trip up to the lakes before Christmas, it had been snowing on and off so I wanted a go at this image with the snow coming down the slopes of the Mountains to the rear, initially I was a bit miffed as there wssn't as much snow I would have liked, but standing theere looking at the fact thewre was less also allows the lonely fishing hut to stand out far more against the background with the colours on the mountainside being able to come through as well.
The lonely little fishing hut is completely dwarfed by it's surroundings, it must be a great place to get away from it all, I'm no fisherman but if I was I'd be heading here.

Another image from summer vacation :) I liked this shot from Kauai and the Na Pali coastline's cliffs dwarfing the touring catamaran down below. The mast of the catamaran was roughly 80' if I recall, and I could count close to 15 people on the deck, just to provide some scale.
..had the pleasure of seeing this colourful sumac the other day in some friends garden...I found it a hard to shoot, busy subject so isolating a few branches seemed the way to go :) By darkening the shaded background to black, it seems to set off these fiery leaves! (another image on previous page)

This ground-hugging, fine-textured relative of the more common chenille plant grows no more than several inches tall. Dwarf Chenille Plant gets its common name from the fuzzy plumes of tiny red flowers that trail above a thick mound of small, serrated leaves. Given enough light, this plant blooms nearly year-round.

Yesterday I went with my photoclub to a butterfly garden. There are not only butterflies. Also these cute little birds🌞
This is a Chinese Dwarf Quail😍
Paintedleaf is native to North and South America. It is also called Wild Poinsettia, because it is closely related to the common Poinsettia. Similar to that plant Painted Leaf typically produces red to orange-red tipped leaves adjacent to its green flowers. Each cyathium contains several male flowers (yellow) and a single female flower. The female flower consists of a 3-lobed ovary with 3 divided styles
It is deer and rabbit resistant.

A few days ago, Lani Elliot posted a beautiful image of Convolvulus, commonly known as Morning Glory. In appreciation of her lovely work, I decided to share this image of a jeweled dwarf convolvulus photographed after a night of heavy fog. You can see her image by clicking the link below.
Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.
