Oh, Pietro! Your photos are fantastic and have really taken my breath away! The colors and the flowers are exquisite and you've captured them sooooo perfectly! Thank you for sharing the beauty! And, oh, yes! A symphony indeed! Have a wonderful week!
Hi Pietro; Your delightful pictures do these delicate looking flowers fully justice. The plants name: Kalmia, syn.Kalmiella; common name Mountain Laurel. They are poisonous to all stock, sometimes they were called "Lambkill". They enjoy the same growing conditions as Rhododendrons. This is a wonderful shrub and I wish I could grow it. Enjoy a great week. T.
Hi Pietro! I haven't seen the flower. it's very cute! and I think the blossom buds look like chocolate:) here it is! it's japanese choco sweets! http://www.aa.alpha-net.ne.jp/ejkht562/page5711.htm
Grazie Pietro per l'informazione ho fatto una piccola ricerca sul web e ho visto che oltre al rosa questa pianta, che poi diventa quasi un'albero, ha i petali anche con disegni e colori diversi...
Pietro, regarding «Louis'» Memorial Day post, Marvin is in his 90s now! He's slowed quite a bit physically, but his mind is razor-sharp. His knowledge of how all the systems work on those WWII-era subs is phenomenal. Marvin is a national treasure. Admiral Nimitz is buried next to his wife and three other admirals who served with him in the Pacific and their wives. They could have been buried at Arlington National Cemetery, but wanted to be buried with the 'rank and file' in common graves at San Bruno.
Regarding Louis' Sunday Bridge post, he's just ordered a new 18-200 zoom, so he'll be able to pull in more detail such as those lights.
