The conditions very early in the mornings have been exactly perfect for meadow photography. Here's how our meadow looked to my camera eye at sunrise a couple of days ago.
A heavy dose of Echinacea

ReplyDeleteBeau T Ful Yvonne!! I've decided my next child's name is going to be Monard Didyma!!! Ha Ha just kidding!! I'm hoping to find the perfect spot for my prairie!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is still the Ratibida.
Have a wonderful day!
That's a beautiful meadow. I'm sure it is full of bees and butterflies.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! Where did you get your seeds/plants?
ReplyDeleteThanks all for your lovely comments. Rosemary: Information about my meadow and how we did it is here: http://www.flower-gardening-made-easy.com/wildflower-meadows.html
ReplyDeleteJust love it, Yvonne!
ReplyDeleteReading the info. on your web-site and older blog posts, however, makes me think that I don't have the patience to establish and manage a meadow like that.
Those pics though, keep me dreaming.
What lovely photos. I especially love the misty morning meadow & the Ratibida. Wishing I had a meadow to plant!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful! I love how it all blends together so perfectly.
ReplyDeleteI came to your site to look at your Aug. bloom day posts, but the first picture in the post stopped me. The mist and light coming through the tree and meadow is stunning.
