Echinacea



Echinacea-2---8x10-wm

Happy New Year!!!
I hope everyone had a great time ringing in 2011.

Here is another flower from the arboretum this past summer.
I'm missing all the flowers already!
...only about 4 more months before they start up again.

    I'm looking forward to the beauty of spring. The newborn calves. The hope that by then I'll feel like my old self.

    Happy New Year!

    Hey, Katie! I love this shot! I have lots of cone flowers--as I call them--in my yard. I love how they attract the butterflies.

    Thanks for sharing this! I'm ready for spring! We had our one snow on Christmas, and this Southern Belle is done!!

    Happy New Year!
    Hugs!
