Sharon, you have lots more O plants than I have! I just have misc Os this year to post...as the new perennial purchases I have, that start with O, didnÂt bloom in 2008. At the end of January 2009 my DH and I went on a road trip down to Arizona and swung up thru California and up the west coast of the US to British Columbia and then drove across the prairies to our home in Manitoba. We travelled almost 8800 km...and we are still talking to each other!! When we were in Mesa, Arizona we took a drive one day to visit the Desert Botanical Gardens. Here are a few cactus that start with O that we saw. They had all the cactus labelled, so I took a picture of the cactus and then a picture of the name of the cactus. I was just about tired of looking at cactus by the time we left there, 3 hours later. I know my DH was. The Octopus Cactus One of their Old Man of the Andes Cactus. The Organ Cactus My DH spent some time golfing at some beautiful golf courses. Here is a picture of the Orange trees along the drive at the Arizona Grand Golf Course in Phoenix, Arizona. And a close up of the Oranges. DonÂt these look good!!! As we drove up the California coast on highway 101 we came across a sign for the Gallup and Stribling Orchid Farm, just south of Santa Barbara. So, we stopped in. Their web site says that they have more than 1.5 million square feet of greenhouse space for their orchids. Wow!! http://www.americanorchids.com/farms.html They are apparently the USAÂs largest orchid growers. Here are just a few pictures I took in their visitorÂs showroom.... As we travelled north of California we drove thru Oregon. It was lightly raining that day. Here are two pictures of the Oregon coastline... The first is a typical view of the ocean and the second is a typical view of the highway, with the ocean on the left and a winding highway to drive on ahead of us, with lots of mountains, little towns and agricultural land to drive thru. When we got to BC, my husbandÂs brother and sister in law took us to the Granville Island Public Market in Vancouver. http://www.granvilleisland.com/en/home Here are some orchid magnets that were made from clay that were for sale there. I really liked them so I brought a few back with me. ThatÂs it for the OÂs for this year... Brenda

Gigantic muffins that my boys like me to make. They are the same size as the ones from Superstore. Instead of my batch of muffins making 24 large ones, it now makes 6 gigantic ones.

These are the kind of gardening gloves sold at MHA convention each year. I love them. This year I hope to get about 3 pairs. They might last me thru this years season.

Garbage box that my husband built. It is raised off the ground, the lid is at a slope and it works very well to keep the animals (domestic and wild) out of the garbage here on our acreage before the garbage gets burned.

Gaelic Sunset Lungwort is a zone 4 lungwort. I like the spots on its leaves. Last year was its first full summer and it didnt bloom then, so I hope it makes it through our really cold winter this year. It is supposed to have pink flowers I believe.

{{gwi:697265}}

Gay Paree Peony was on the acreage here when we bought it. I moved the original roots and made 5 clumps of them all along the edge of a retaining wall. I have a spreading juniper, Bar Harbour that drapes over the wall edge, planted in between each peony.

{{gwi:697266}}

Granada Sempervivum. When Sharon posted hers she said that hers looked like it had a sunburn. Hmmmm.... wonder why it grew like that? Here is mine. I love the way the camera caught all the little fine hairs on each leaf.
