What a difference...



What a difference a season makes! Three photos of about the same area in my front flower garden, one in September at the verdant height of botanical lusciousness, one from earlier in February after the snow and one from a few days ago. These photos illustrate the usefulness of photo documentation of your yard and garden, which is so easy now with digital cameras. It is hard to recollect from season to season what I have planted where, and documenting the garden with photos really helps me track where those bulbs are buried, how tall the plants usually get and what might be lacking in a part of the garden during a particular season. You can do the same thing with garden mapping and design software or through meticulous records, but I find that photo documentation is far easier and much more fun!
Happy gardening! And garden photography!

  2. Pretty incredible, eh? It will start to look pretty in another month, once the bulbs come up and bloom...
