I made this sculpture to sit in the middle of my wisteria (see above). I hadn't named it when I made it (2022), but if the wisteria is "The Kraken", then this would be Andromeda.

Ceramic sculpture of a stylized female figure with truncated arms and a kind of Greek looking skirt and a massive stylized headdress that looks like it might be an alien or an African mask. It's buff colored, but glazed ceramic with red, white, and black under glaze added in some areas. It is flanked by several large ceramic urns containing exotic looking ferns and small rhododendrons and chartreuse leaved creeping Jenny plants

Closer view of the head of the sculpture. The eyes look like round discs or radio telescope discs. The headdress is red and white flares like wings. A pair of nasal tusk like ornaments protrudes from where her nose should be. Her mouth is open in an expression of dismay.

Another side view of the same sculpture as previous photos.

My wisteria, which I've nicknamed "The Kraken" (not a homage to the hockey team but to its threat to crush our entire house). It's blooming especially hard this year. I love it (it came with the house), but I wouldn't recommend this plant. It needs pruning every 2 weeks for the whole summer, every year, to keep the whips from lashing out at neighboring trees and passers-by. It's more like a vicious pet than a landscape plant.

A flowering vine entertained with the railing of a long deck ramp. The hanging blooms are like bunches of grapes, they are white and cover the plant. In the back is a curved wooden pergola and a pine yree.

View from the ramp of the same huge vine. A set of stairs faces the viewer and the railing of the level above it is draped with the flowering vine. A large ceramic figurative sculpture sits in the center of the photo, framed by the flowering vine.

Frontal view of the sculpture and the large containers that flank it. They contain exotic looking plants with long leaves (pyrrosoa ferns) and some ceanothus and a couple large leaves rhododendron seedlings.

Title: Half Moon Bridge (1940)

Artist: Toshi Yoshida

In the foreground, a wisteria tree in bloom stretches across a pond, its branches heavy with purple flowers, their weight supported from below by wooden poles. Beyond, pedestrians cross a short bridge with an exaggerated curve; combined with its reflection in the still water of the pond, the bridge is designed to create a complete circle.

#Viburnum #Wisteria #Viola #Weigela

Viburnum plicatum. The flower of a small tree. In the foreqground a corymb of fertile flowers (tiny and cream coloured) surrounded by infertile flowers, much larger with four asymmetrical white petals. In the background, more flowers in bud, and leaves.

Wisteria cultivar. Looking up at the arbour, the background is blue sky and white cloud. The wisteria is hanging down towards us in long racemes of small purple flowers. A couple of inquisitive tendrils are reaching out into the sky.

Viola cultivar, pansy. I don't know the name but I thought it sweet. We're looking one flower "in the face" and there are many others around and in the background. The flower is more or less round, with electric blue-violet edges, then a zone of creamy white shading into creamy yellow and a deepo yellow throat with black rays emanating from the center.

Weigela florida, old-fashioned weigela. A branch cuts diagonally across the frame, growing from it, many pink tube-and-corolla flowers with prominent white stamens and pistil, and a few new green leaves.

Spring keeps giving its gifts. You get used to walking past an unassuming chain-link fence; then one day you look up, and there’s wisteria.
#photography #naturephotography #urbannature #flowers #bloomscrolling #spring #wisteria #purple #garden #communitygarden #nyc

A closeup view of wisteria on a chain-link fence. The petals, in soft shades of purple and blue with white-edged green central streaks, fill the image from left frame almost all the way across to right. Eventually the wisteria gives way to an out-of-focus backdrop of chain links, a glimpse of a green garden beyond, and some spots of pale sky.

Our neighbors Spruce tree is blooming again

Wisteria growing on a Spruce tree. Lilac colored racemes maybe 1-1.5 feet long. The green spruce is still visible at its base and several feet above.

I'm livid. Livid, I tell you.
It's all my fault, really: what was I thinking?
Reusing an old tire as protection, when, of course, it makes a comfy home for snails?!
We have this #wisteria and for a long time it was a little dry branch, but I didn't give up on her, and this year she was full of leaves. Well, someone had a great banquet!

Who would want to live in a house like this?

I was out and about some way from my usual stamping grounds and came across this house with a wonderful set of wisteria climbers growing up the front. I just had to get a picture to share.

A big white house that looks more like a mansion, with four or five wisteria plants in full bloom growing up the front. There is a spacious hedged lawn in front of the house.
