On Tuesday, I found myself in Harrisonburg with a half hour to kill before an appointment. I made a quick visit to the Arboretum.
The little terrarium is in the visitors center. I was looking for circular shapes for a theme assignment for a local photo group, which is why I photographed the drinking fountain. Although I stood to the side, I did not succeed in getting my reflection out of the picture.
Meanwhile, grape hyacinths are blooming in my front yard. They are tiny plants also called muscari. I’m afraid I took this photo with my cell phone while holding the dog’s leash in the other hand. It’s not a great picture but I was anxious to share a sign of spring.
A beautiful garden
ReplyDeleteMuscari won't be here until May.
