Thank you - it was one of my favourite plants at the old garden - I'll miss it next spring.

You moved houses? Couldn't you take the plant with you? Or was it too big?

You moved houses?
Yes, from a house with a very large garden to a highrise apartment. I took a collection of dwarf conifers with me (they can live comfortably on the balcony), but everything else stayed in the ground.

That's quite a change!!! I hope you'll enjoy the highrise apartment! Do you have a nice view from the balcony?

Do you have a nice view from the balcony?

We do indeed - we have a 270 degree view which takes in downtown Vancouver and a huge sweep of the mountains which dominate the northern horizon. I'll have to look into taking a panoramic photo.

A panoramic photo of your view from the appartment sounds great!!! Looking forward to see it!!!

I've always liked the contrast of yellow on black...but in this case I like the way the stem arcs into the picture and creates a movement that "blooms" into the tips of the petals

joe-veal In reply to ZaneAsylum [2006-11-30 21:35:27 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I agree that the arc of the stem is an integral part of the image.

Thank you - it's a great plant - hard to go wrong photographing it. The downside is that the slugs love it. John
