Belated Picture Post... Mum Show
The Annual Chrysanthemum Show - Gage Park Greenhouse, Hamilton, Ontario.
My favourite are the spider mums
The large display inside...
Me!
I ought to have used a flash on this one...
Flower man on Tractor
Hay shed
Old plow...
The big display from the other end...
I went through and looked at other photos of the show I've taken...apparently I like this variety!
More spider mums
There is also a greenhouse at the end of the tour...
Waterfall and Koi pond.
Fuschia
Outside there were also displays...Kitty!!
A gardening gopher (shut up Jenn...it was a gopher!)
Caddyshack Gopher Mum Show Gopher
See what I mean??
Gardening bunneh!
Ornamental Kale...now they call it that, but is there any reason one can't eat it?
The show had an infestation of Fae...not sure there's a spray for that, so I took her to dinner after...
I made the grave error of enticing a nearby squirrel over for photos. It thought I had something in my hand. Jenn and I had not quite finished counting upwards of 15 squirrels within 100 ft or so when I foolishly bent down and made kissy noises at it. Suddenly every squirrel in the area started coming toward me and I had a sudden vision of being swarmed and overcome in a tide of furious squirrels feeling ripped off because I was offering air instead of nuts. This one made a grab for my finger...twice. I feel fortunate I didn't lose a limb. I made promises to the squirrelly park goddess to return at a later date with food for her subjects.
But it's not like they're hurtin' for food! Fat little suckers!
