Featuring a few of the very best images on the site - chosen by me!  Hey, it's the only thing I get out of this so humor me!

Stop back often - I rotate the crops!

JELLYFISH JEALOUSY  Photo by Betts Daume

Flower by Margo Reed

Just exquisite!  It's hard  (at least for me) to capture these delicate muted eyezones.

LILAC LAUGHTER by Dick Sloan - creator of both flower and photo

(It's not a seedling as the photo states.

Well, it was a seedling once, of course...)

To see such a gorgeous flower in a clump just about makes me faint!

SATIN BIRD  Photo by Betts Daume, flower by Childs

When's the last time you saw a picture of this one?  How about never?  This elegant bird is ready for flight - hopefully into my garden!  Reminds me a bit of Trahlyta but I like the form better!

PUPPET LADY - photo by Bobbie Brooks, flower by Lambert

"This is a great example of a twisted and pinched crispate" she said as she wondered if it was more quilled than pinched. 

Anyway, beautiful form and colors - and Bobbie's composition  accentuates the marionette-like nature of this flower.
