Paula I chuckled at the 1st pic but laughed out loud at the boy with the fish in his mouth! A friend had a boy that would stick anything up his nose, in his ears and in his mouth. I am sure he would have done the fish lol!

Such pretty pics everyone!

To help me ID the flowers , I took a pic of the hosta. But I didn't do this for the following flowers. Hoping you still enjoy regardless of not knowing the name. I'll guess the ones I think from just the placement of the pictures .Let me know if I am wrong. I wouldn't want to confuss anyone. As , I find it very helpful and use it as a tool to ID my NOID's

Hosta Flowers gets my vote for the most glamorous post..I haven't taken many pics of my hosta flowers..I'll check..I'll share a pic of my overwintering plants..I tried filters and created these!..#1 color cartoon..#2 neutral tones cartoon..too bad the pot right in front was holding a plant I need to repot..I still need to do it..

More beauties!

Sorry I can't be of help Shadow.

Excited with your breeding for red tubes hosta_maker.

nw I really enjoy the flower shots too! It is fun playing with photos, interesting shots!

Zebra Stripes

thanks peren..this is my best flower shot..it's a clausa..just my luck that peren's comment directly above has a much better pic of clausa!!..but I'm posting mine anyway..Lol

As you should nw. The more pics of a plant the better, we get to see the foliage in yours!

Playing catch up, been sick with a bad cold.... Shadow, that last picture in your first group looks like Whirlwind, but I suspect you would easily recognize that one. Sunny, that Bridegroom flower is gorgeous. Lovely flowers everyone. I really like seeing the flowers as well. When I am having trouble figuring out a hosta, how the flower looks is very helpful.

Trying two at a time.

I have more, but that’s enough. I love taking the flower photos!

I am delighted to see so many flower pictures! As for me, looks like I am lacking in that area. I'll have to step it up next year!

I like to try to get close shots of the flowers, but I get frustrated because it is often too windy.
