Carrollton Yard

I was in Carrollton TX last week and took some photos of the yard in the lulls between family visits. It is hotter in Texas than in Maryland. The red yucca is a popular plant in the area now but my Mother had it in her garden for over 30 years and it propagates! It was blooming and there were green seed pods already on her plants.

There was a ceramic duck in the foliage – that has seen a lot of freeze thaw cycles and is deteriorating in place.

There were several plants I photographed because of the way the light made them ‘glow’

And others that were highlighted simply because they were colors other than green.

There was an American Green Anole on rooster sculpture! He stayed long enough for a portrait…and then turns so I could photograph the other side.
