Birds in the Garden
It is high summer and everything in New Hampshire is very green. I like to tell my students to make birds based on the things they see around them. Here are some birds inspired by gardens and things that grow in them.
I planted coneflowers in my garden this year. This is one of them.

I planted this hosta as a tiny little plant in the spring of 2015. It is "Sum and Substance." I try to tell everybody how big it is...
but nobody gets it until I show them this picture.
I love making birds based on flowers...

That hosta is HUGE!!!
I love Sum & Substance hosta, yours looks great and very happy. Besides the size, that yellow just brightens up a dark area. I planted some Empress Wu hosta this spring - it's supposed to get quite large, but it doesn't have the color. I know some people hate hostas planted around trees, but they certainly eliminate the trimming once established.
