The grapes are enjoying the warmer weather and spring showers. It's just a local wild varietal, so they will probably be made into jelly.

I recently started taking photos of some of my favourite plants (there are many!) with some very basic studio lighting. This might even be the start of a whole project/series. It's fun to explore new ways of shooting when daylight hours don't allow for any creative outings.

In case any one is wondering about the progress of leaf senescence in that #oak tree. #botany #plantphotos

#PacificRhododendron aka #CaliforniaRosebay, is native to coastal #PacificNorthwest areas, from California to British Columbia. It's the #StateFlower of #WashingtonState. They usually produce pink to peach coloured flowers.

It's found growing in the wilds of coastal forest areas. It's been cultivated into gardens here too. You can grow them from cuttings, taken from wild or ask for cuttings from local cultivated gardens.

More of our indoor #orchids have bloomed.
The white one is for my Dad's memorial altar & it has the most blooms ❤️ I have another white one, with only 2 flowers so far.
