A rose by any other name: cluster rose, swamp rose, peafruit rose...which is why the Linnean system (Rosa pisocarpa) is so great except when they recategorize plants! This set of shrubs had flowers verging on lavender, which I suppose some people would call pale pink, based on photos online. Most of the ones I have seen in the past are much more deeply rose. Ravenna Park, Seattle, Washinton, USA

Nootka rose in spring sunlight: Their perfume was wafting over the trails, catching my attention, leading me to the impassable hedges covered with roses (Rosa nutkana). Ravenna Park, Seattle, Washington, USA

Cut back the old dead fronds and new ones just spring up ready for a new life. Fern fronds are always nice to photograph. Our garden, Maple Leaf Neighborhood, Seattle, Washington USA

Oregon wood-sorrel: Also called redwood sorrel, this oxalis (Oxalis oregana) forms mounds of bright green leaves interspersed with pink-striped white flowers which open in sunlight and close when the cloud shadows drift over. Ravenna Park, Seattle, Washington, USA
