As much as I love flowers, it’s the foliage that really gets me. I like a good leaf and rainbow of green hues. That’s why our woodland garden – full of hostas and ferns – gets more TLC than the others; the luscious unfurling of the fresh fronds is my love’s reward.

I have a feeling we’re surrounded by similar environs…and it looks like I can learn a lot from you. Your pictures are stunning, your ferns have something mine don’t. http://eachandeverydayphotodiary.wordpress.com/2013/05/16/day-136-just-a-fern/
I’ll enjoy following your 365 project.
Thanks, Luke. I enjoy seeing your pics, too. My ‘big impact’ thing lately is making sure the blacks are really nice and dark. It’s amazing how that makes the colors pop without touching saturation. Glad to have you on board.
I couldn’t agree more. I thrill every spring at the ferns, what a wonderful green.
Great photo! LOVE woodland gardens!
Nothing more beautiful and lush!
