While it's been warm with lots of rain this past week, the flowering quince has gone nuts! The shrubs are covered in pink buds & blossoms. Chorus frogs are in a roar and Spring peepers are starting to chirp. And the blue hydrangeas are greening out too early as usual. And I stopped to talk to the Green anole sunning on the downspout ... turned his brown eyes blue ;-)
We've got a string of frosty nights ahead - the last 2 weeks of January are our coldest days of the year. North Georgia

This large, spectacular flowering crab blooms at the end of our communal yard with our neighbours. Unfortunately nobody's perfect; the fruit are insipid.

Thank you to everyone who visits, faves, and comments.
Within the smoky mountains tourists often come for the grand vistas, the unending cascades of mountains, the aw inspiring look at nature. The big animals, like bear, or elk, but sometimes the real beauty to behold is a tad bit smaller. Overlooking the fields at one of those aforementioned grand vistas, watching elk graze in the field, under the watchful eye of the ranger and the big bull, I noticed another scene playing out. Rows upon rows of purple wild flowers sprouting along the edges of the field, and right there, dancing butterflies. I dare not approach the scene, I dare not change lenses, I was looking for a shot of the elk. I hurriedly put the scene in my viewfinder and clicked away, before the two butterflies, simply fluttered away in the changing evening light.

I am not a plant person, I can barely tell a daisy from a mum. This beautiful plant was growing on the the shoreline of Wehrspann Lake, south of Omaha. I posted this on Facebook, asking people to ID it, and according to a majority of the good people on Nebraska Through the Lens, this is a Flowering Rush, a species of Butomus. Also known as Grass Rush. Botanical name, Butomus umbellatus. A perennial, they say it's an herb!
Camellia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Theaceae. Camellias are evergreen shrubs or small trees up to 20 m tall. They are found in eastern and southern Asia, from the Himalayas east to Japan and Indonesia. There are about 300 species and around 3,000 hybrids. Their flowers are usually large and conspicuous, one to 12 cm in diameter, with five to nine petals in naturally occurring species of camellias. The colors of the flowers vary from white through pink colors to red. Of economic importance in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Indian subcontinent, leaves of C. sinensis are processed to create the popular beverage tea. The ornamental C. japonica, C. sasanqua and their hybrids are the source of hundreds of garden cultivars. C. oleifera produces tea seed oil, used in cooking and cosmetics. The various species of camellia plants are generally well-adapted to acid soils rich in humus, and most species do not grow well on chalky soil or other calcium-rich soils. Most species of camellias also require a large amount of water, either from natural rainfall or from irrigation, and the plants will not tolerate droughts. However, some of the more unusual camellias – typically species from karst soils in Vietnam – can grow without too much water. 53171
I spent a couple of hours in the gardens at Borde Hill yesterday on a lovely sunny afternoon. The Dogwood trees are looking beautiful at this time of year.
Strawberries with pink flowers are seriously sweet, from bloom to berry. Pink-flowering strawberries produce not only the prized summer fruits, but also do so with a darling ornament. There’s an irresistible appeal to strawberries with pink flowers brimming over a hanging basket or trailing from a pot.
