You’ve Got To Find….

By Silver Blue

…the right kind of garden to grow in.

Since I’ve been remiss in my daily posts, I thought I’d double up today.

Also taken at the Botanical Gardens, Norfolk, VA, there are three … statues tending their garden.

Each season, these statues look different. When I was there shooting the rose gardens, I encountered them for the first time. I must say that in order to keep all the plants at bay must take a LOT of effort.

I’ve not asked the back story to the statues, but I find them interesting. Almost … oh, almost eastern European, Slavic in their interpretations of the workers.

So, as I return to the Botanical Gardens over the next couple of months, we’ll keep an eye on these guys, and see if they’re doing their job, or just half-stepping. LOL.

Silver Blue, who remembers the last statue being drenched by a sprinkler (which made taking the photo interesting, to say the least). Guess even THEY have an intolerance to heat.
