Everyone that is posting here takes such great pictures....thanks for the pleasurable entertainment.

I have a small Nikon digital camera, and am definitely an amateur at photography. We like flowers a lot, and when my wife and I had our home in southern WI some years ago, we enjoyed gardening. Now we're retired, and are apartment folk. Our daughter lives an hour away and visits quite often. She also no longer has her own place with a garden, so has chosen to "garden" on our patio. Each spring she selects various plants, designs, and builds her garden only with potted plants (we even get to choose some plantings!!). I do the watering throughout the week while she's at home, then she handles everything else during her visits with us. We enjoy it very, very much, and so does she! :D

These pictures were taken just before 4th of July last year. Our daughter is also into appropriate holiday decos, as you can see. With spring here, we're looking forward to her planting another potpourri of pots for this season.

Very nice, I have grown tomatoes, peppers, and basil on the back deck a few times. Makes a great fresh salad.

Real nice job. Looks very serene and a good place to hang out with family.
