Another canna opened a flower,today. Bright yellow af a height of 7 or 8'.
--- Hey Verdun did you see mine? It's a purple leaved Canna Australia in the tree pic, between the crocosmia and peony,bottom left - don't forget your glasses!
Mrs G - the first one is not a tree carving - its a carved log we brought back from an Austrian holiday (5€ !) - it has just been strategically placed to blend in with its host tree
These are in flower now. I hope to save the seed. I think they came from a disastrous wild flower mix I sowed and have spent most of the summer trying to remove.

addict, they smell wonderful, and when you get too close they turn your fringe a glorious shade of orange.
KEF - all my hair is that colour !
Mrs G - your conifers reminded me of these fellas - mostly they just get ignored, but everynow and then someone notices them and does a double take !
Happy to bring a smile to your faces.
Chicky - love the first one! We looked into tree carving but too expensive.
Snap ! for the second one, on one of the apple trees.

perfect fit.

However I think these are little gems
They are very pretty. What are they ? poppies?
Sorry Lizzie, just seen your question. Yes they are poppies.
