I love it!!!
My mom names her plants after who gave them to her, or what they remind her of ... there's the "Martha Tree", "Gramma's Roses", the "climbing tree", and the "Rosie Bush" and more. I don't even know most of them by their botanical names!
I really like this idea, because I never ever know the 'real' names of plants (I didn't even when we used to actually garden. As soon as we planted them, I forgot!)
These are so gorgeous!
I talk to my plants, too....only worry when they talk back....
Beautiful rose collection! Mango Sherbert, cute name.
So cool! I like their pretty names:)
Great post and interesting PINK!
Visiting for PS- hope you can stop by..

Such a brilliant idea, I may do this with the roses in my garden too.
Just found your lovely blog via Skywatch and am now following here.
Have a great weekend.
Paul
beautiful shots.
My entry.
I don't name them but my mother did. She'd love your names. I especially like the Popover roses. That reminded me of my mother and how she would have laughed. Popovers were a specialty of hers. Thanks for the memory :)
So pretty! I love the painting...Pinkim visiting from PS.
The "orange mango sorbet" has always been my favorite. Something about that color combinations just makes me melt.
Lovely post, - great colour!
Have a nice evening!

Hey Jesh,
Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a nice comment.
Your blog is neat. I enjoyed looking at your paintings. They are pretty!
I am study Radiography. I've been busy lately studying structures and functions of every part of the human bones. Going out with my family such as hiking and driving up to the mountain help me relax. I am also taking painting class too. I am enjoying it.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Hugs,
Tess
What beautiful photos and the painting is exquisite. I also love that wedding painting below!
Fabulous shots - so beautiful.
I love your nicknames! And the oil painting is just a mirror image! How lovely!
hi !
I like very much the work you did on that picture of rose, and the way you explain here how you went from picture to painting is awesome.
I've answered to you question on my blog : http://lunedemaledaumon.blogspot.fr/2012/10/vetements-de-travail.html?showComment=1352059595536#c8531440107806339339
Sorry for the delay, I'm not home this week, and it is not always easy to find a internet connection, where I am.
These paintings are just gorgeous!
Hey are using Wordpress for your blog platform?
I'm new to the blog world but I'm trying to get started and create my own.
Do you need any coding expertise to make your own blog?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
