During my first tour of the “Orti Urbani” my friend Ephraim was my guide, then he introduced me to Gabriele, the “botanist” of the gardens, who showed me a lot of plants I didn't know of, in a still untouched part of the land. Sadly, I was able to photograph and remember only a few.
OK, that's not a plant and the picture is far from perfect, but the beast wasn't easy to catch...

Your patience paid off, VP.

ReplyDeleteWonderful shots. I love the dragonfly.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very good dragonfly photograph. I don't even try. Too fast for me.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot of the gossamer wings.
ReplyDeleteHow can anyone remember the Latin names of plants??
The dragonfly is well catched, VP, and I like also the “Iris foetidissima”, a plant I've not seen before.
ReplyDeleteI think the image of the beast.... is well done.
ReplyDeleteStrange creator!:)
It can be tricky to hunt down dragonflies, but you do probably need the exercise.
