    Marley, if your referring to the red berries, it is on a plant.

    Finally got the swing bench, ordered the cushions. But today I did plant the little baby rose climbers one on each side. I have to get some slate for under the bench and mulch for around the babies.

    The stump tomatoes have grown, over on the right side looks like some is getting ready for picking.

    Just sharing this picture with you all of a ground cover sedum I took maybe last winter. Have it all in past mode from photobucket for another garden forum, so might as well position it here too. The colors are just wonderful, and this was taken in December, the shine on it is from the melted snow that left.
    Fall/winter colors are just beautiful, I was amazed in its vividness.

    That is lovely! I am a huge fan of sedums of all shapes and sizes, they may be even humble weeds but they are invariably interesting and surprisingly nice close up.

    Took these pictures a few years ago, but they are up now. No reason to retake, in various gardens here.

    About 5 years ago found a broken Pieris japonica branch about 8 inches high on the ground from one of my Pieris japonica in the front of my house. I walked it over to another garden area, dug a quick hole, pruned the branch and put in in the hold firming the soil around it. Walking away, I said, well your on your own. The branch has stayed green all these years, today it is now knee high with many nice bushy branches. Seems happy there. And it will remain.

    (Found this video on computer) Taken about 3 years ago, early spring. Heath and heathers much bigger now. Looks like the cherry tree starting to bloom, so must be about mid April.
    This the the view from our gazebo. It is a solar fountain, turns on about 10Am goes to about 3:30PM. And thats my house up on the hill.
    All those trees will soon get leaves, and thats the crazy raking we have to do in the fall.
