A camera that captures a fragrance would revolutionise record-keeping

We’ve had Sandy for almost a year now

Thanks – I try to maintain a clean-cut look especially because it’s a small space, it can look untidy very quickly.

…. Most of the plants I’ve murdered have been because of over-watering!

Very nice photos! I like wintertime too, even though it’s cold! Nothing like snow right before christmas day

Truly it is so therapeutic to shoot pictures after gardening. We might call the yellow flowers Virginia Creeper or Honey Suckle, but not too sure. I wonder if a camera can capture the fragrance of the flowers and freshly cut lawn?
Beauty!

yes, great weather out there, and all green fingers do itch i guess!
not sure of the name, but these yellow flowers are common garden plants in india, and ve spotted them here too. as kids used to make those buds go ‘snap’ with a bang on our palms, and even to this day, feel like doing it, even if ridden by guilt!!

I don’t have a clue about the flower’s name.. but that is a very clean and organized garden!

Didn’t know you had a dog!

Great shots as usual!

I like clean cut gardens, one thing is for sure is that I do not have any skills in the garden what so ever, plants tend to die with me no matter how much I water it! I have no gauge for watering plants!

Hi Nicole, Very well – thank you. I hope you and your family are all well too.

We had two orange and one yellow in pots. The orange ones lasted one spring and I caught this one on its last legs, and moved it into the ground. It has since survived two summers

Thank you for the name. Yes a google search confirms it as correct. I’ve added it as a tag too.

All the best,
M

Hello Mohammed, Hope you are well, clearly enjoying the garden.

If the yellow flowering plant is a climbing one and loves the sun it looks very like a CAMPSIS radicans.

There are many varieties ranging from yellow through orange and red. If you google the words above you might be able to spot the one you have.

Best wishes, Nicole
