Spring breaks out - # 65


The "Snake's Head" frtillarii (fritillaria meleagris) are looking especially good in the Wilderness Garden at Ham House this week. Be quick, or they will be gone.

    I don't think I have ever seen a flower like this. Nice picture with the setting sun.

    I must do some research to see if we have them here, in Florida, but I haven't seen them before. Not crazy about their name though ;-)

    Nicely framed photo.
