Three views of the first large garden pot made for my yard.
(I live in tropical south zone and our neighborhood did not freeze even this winter with our record cold. {That's not saying I wasn't freezing, because I was!!} I say this because I do know that freeze thaw would usually be a BIG problem with the type of ceramic I used on this pot.)
Catching some mid afternoon spring sunshine, these potted azaleas are bringing a welcome splash of colour to our otherwise green garden. Food for thought - more azaleas next year.
Lens: I used an old prime lens from my Minolta 35 mm film SLR with an EOS adaptor. You need to adjust the Æ’-stop and focus manually of course so a little experimenting is necessary. I was trying to get a deeper dof and the Æ’35 wide angle (= 56 mm digital) seemed to do the trick.
Made it to Explore - thank you all

I've been emptying my pots getting them ready for winter. Into the garage they'll go until next spring when they'll be filled with seedlings and annuals for summer color. This made the cut for the front of my calendar:

Succulent collection.
I bring these pots in the house during the winter months.
The need for high humidity, bright but filtered light, and soil kept relatively moist most of the year sets these plants apart from the majority of cacti and succulents
Every spring I decide to create a tasteful display of flowering plants. And every spring it's the same thing ... best described as a happy chaos!
I'm not finished planting up the black pots yet but I'm getting close. I have incentive as I won't look at other plants to buy until all the ones I have are planted. Sounds logical.
The pond plants (left) are growing like weeds most likely because they ARE weeds.
And, something new this year. I call them mini-cosmos (center pink and white) because they are only 3" - 4" tall.
Got to go! I can hear my goldfish calling for their dinner.
Whimsical, fun and fancy flowers dance all over this mosaic vase that stand 28" high, 15" wide. Made to withstand Chicago weather conditions, it is part of the Highland Park Art Walk for the month of June 2012. Visit my Etsy site - Mosaic Renaissance - to see more creations by Chris Zonta.
My sister cycles with two groups and hikes with two other groups. Today, when the Monday cycling group was in the neighbourhood, she brought them to see my garden. That's Sheila in the middle with the white helmet.
Cycling = a great way to stay in shape!

My garden.
Planted up with Ophiopogon 'Black Dragon', which looks good all year round.
Ophiopogon (Lilyturf) is a genus in the family Convallariaceae/Liliaceae. The genus contains about 50 species of evergreen, clump-forming perennials which are native to China and Japan. They are mainly grown for their dense tufts of grass-like leaves and their versatility as evergreen ground cover, or edging for a perennial border.
Ophiopogon planiscapus 'Black Dragon' (synonym 'Nigrescens', 'Arabicus' and 'Ebony Knight') has dark purple (almost black) leaves. The purple flowers, borne in summer, are followed by dark purple-black berries. This variety is fully hardy in the United Kingdom.
