Great pictures! They are all delightful and each gardener/photographer has taken just a little different view which helps weave the gardens together piece by piece. Thanks.

Wow, you were paying attention during the Wildflower Center tour. Good factoids and pics. Thanks also for the photo of my drink table because I really wanted a picture of that lovely sunflower-iris bouquet that was given to me.

What cool photos, I love all the color in them.

I’ll be looking forward to the rest of your Spring Fling photos.

Hi all,

The clever little photo strip is called pictobrowser. If you have a flickr account, you can use picto. You can click on the picto in my post, and it will automatically ask you for your flickr name. Then you upload the sets you want. You can also adjust the appearance of the set.

I just happened to find it a couple weeks ago after I had spent DAYS trying to upload images into WP. It is lightning fast and I am really glad you liked it.

I will be adding a couple more sets from Spring Fling, part 2: after the Texas-tinis. MA

That’s a lovely post on Spring Fling and GREAT photos. If I may ask a technical question, what is that photo gallery you are using? I really love it. Is it a plug-in? Thanks!

Wow, I really like how streamlined your pictobrowser is. Great recap of the Spring Fling! It was nice to meet you.

Had to go look at the Wildflower Center entry for the Copper Globe Mallow before commenting – too bad you couldn’t bring one back.

It was fun seeing all the color at Pam’s, the Natural Gardener and Lucinda’s, but boy my dark green/white garden shed and furniture looked plain when I got home.

MA, your Northern bottle tree could have an Idaho slant if you use bottles from Idaho-potato vodka ;-]

For a bunch of introverts, we sure can talk. It was great meeting you. I too looked longingly at several pots of plants, but my rule of thumb was “if it doesn’t fit in the carryon, it doesn’t come home with me.” I long for the good old days of airtravel when 2 or 3 carryons weren’t a problem.

Hey, that Pictobrowser works really great! I must have been sleepwalking at the Natural Gardener. I don’t remember that colorful shed at all.
