Which pictures make you feel more invited? I don't know why there are 2 blue squares following the text. I hope no new procedures for posting photos have created a mishap. Anyway -- last photo is my highly technical way of measuring for preserves. I thought some of you all might enjoy the extremes of the year. best.

Nice coleus. If we are talking figs, I think the last. __________________ Dale non compost mentis in Zone 6a

Michael, Great pictures. I'd say I like the 2nd picture with the cut figs the best. As much as I hate the snow at times, I think I would miss it if I was in a warmer climate. __________________ Art- Western Pa. 6a

I've lived in places with snow and in places without snow. Without is better. They're all nice photos but the 2nd from the right is my favorite. __________________ Zone 6, MO Wish list: Galicia Negra, De La Reina - Pons, Genovese Nero - Rafed's, Sbayi, Souadi, Acciano, Any Rimada, Sodus Sicilian, any Bass, Pons or Axier fig, any great tasting fig.
