Rainy Sunday last weekend. Not much for gardening, but OK for scanning some soggy daffs.
Bonus daff scans

My monthly efforts with plants and a cheap scanner.
Bloom day scans
More than usual for the April scans, what with the early spring warm weather. (We’re probably around two to three weeks ahead on growing degree days.) Thanks to Carol at May Dreams Gardens for hosting. Click on images for larger views.
Daffs.

Bloom day scans
Never have I cut such a high percentage of the blooms in my garden, and filled such a small percentage of the scanner bed. Hope you like them anyway. Thanks to Carol at May Dreams Garden for hosting, as usual.

February bloom day scans
Apologies for the sporadic blogging this winter, including taking off two months on the bloom day scans. (Life’s been hectic, especially on the doggie front.) Figured February would be a good month to get back in the saddle with some dark, broody bloom day scans of the seeds and stems variety. We’ll get some color back in a month or two. Thanks to Carol at May Dreams Gardens for hosting.
Here’s how you do it. (It’s easy.)
Garden Blogger Bloom Day Scan 2010 Calendar (Beta)
You all asked for it …
Prompted by the many encouraging comments and emails I’ve gotten, I pulled together a calendar of 20 of my favorite bloom day scans I’ve made through the years, more or less matching them to the month they were made. It’s available via my zazzle store.
One caveat: I haven’t yet held the product in my hands, and probably won’t for a few days. So I can’t vouch for the quality and value. I’ve only printed a couple of the images I’ve used in the calendar before, and they looked great. But I expect that with so many scans involved that I might want to touch a few up after I see them in print. Things often look different in hard copy than they do on the screen.
I haven’t fully explored the zazzle site. But I’m planning to use some of these scans for notecards and other products as well. And if I have time, I’ll do a second calendar of photographs. I’ll keep you posted, and once I’m happy with the results I’ll add a permanent link to what’s available over in the right column.
Thanks for your support.
