check
it is late and someone needs to find a picture. it is also late in winter and it is time for a thaw. so lets try not to think too hard about it. if it was warmer we could go to the garden and unwind. since it is winter we will look at pictures and unwind. tonight we will do the official garden monitor check. no calibration. just a monitor check. one of the flowers is pink. the other is lavender. enjoy the flowers and then make a March monitor check somewhere. even if it is just an imaginary check. enjoy. two flowers – one image. check !
PS – there are extra points awarded if you see pink or lavender snow persons melting in the background. and do not look too hard unless you are using your imagination… check !
one more and a lullaby
similar
lavender again ! ? !
one half sib
is pink stronger than red ?
another seedling that has been making its way around the garden. this seedling is from Irish Lullaby. as you can see the petals are not skinny… yet. the parent is a mid season plant. it starts blooming as the early season plants finish. and it has a tall well branched scape. with a little luck it will pass that on to its children. two images
