Well, it has been snowing forever here and I can’t stand the thought of posting any snowy photos. Instead, I thought I would dig back in the archives a little and I found some photos from a trip I took to Seattle in 2008. We visited a conservatory and took a walk through the greenhouses. Here are a few of the interesting plants I saw…

A wonderful contrast of textures, colours and shapes in your selection today. Love the pink fluffy tails!

These photos certainly warm things up. Though it’s been in the seventies all week here and beautiful….

Oh wow! It is certainly lovely to see something green and blooming. Those are beautiful.

I thought those first ones might have come from the cactus family with all the prickles. Love the yellow and the pink blossoms too. My photos are not of snow either.

I wonder what the plant with the long pink fluffy tails is called. Cool!

Those are so pretty! I like them all, but I think the second one is my favorite of the bunch.

The textures, shapes and colors pack a punch of beauty?? Happy week-end?

Love that last one. You obviously felt the same as me because I plumped for photos of flowers in Paris on a sunny day rather than more snow and ice. My Snapshot is at http://goo.gl/GVIbC

What a delightful spring visit, it’s been brutally cold and wintery here too.

It’s been snowing here forever too. This makes me want to go look up more spring and summery photos. I don’t know why I hadn’t thought of that before!
