A cluster of unripe elderberries lies on smooth gray creek stones in bright sunlight. The berries are a mix of green, yellowish-orange, and red, attached to vivid magenta stems. A single blade of green grass crosses diagonally beside them; the rocky creek bed fills the sunlit background.

A close-up, ground-level view of an unripe elderberry cluster resting among rounded river rocks. Green and red-tinged berries branch from dark reddish-purple stems, with a few small green leaves nearby. Blurred sunlit foliage glows in the background under a strong, shallow depth of field.

Cyanocitta stelleri like to cut off bunches of Sambucus racemosa to eat the berries in private. Not all of them are great at picking ripe bunches 😅

I was impressed by these crocuses that grew through cardboard sheet mulch to reach the sun 🌷☀️

A close-up of a vibrant dahlia flower with pointed petals that transition from bright yellow at the base to vivid red at the tips. The bloom is fully open with tightly layered petals radiating outward, set against a soft-focus green garden background.

A close-up of a bright magenta-pink dahlia with densely layered, pointed petals that fade to lighter pink near the center. The flower is fully bloomed and photographed against a soft-focus green garden background, with another pink dahlia blurred in the distance.

A fully bloomed dahlia with dense, rounded layers of petals in warm tones—soft peach and apricot fading to salmon-pink with deeper magenta tips near the center. The tightly clustered core shows burgundy-purple stamens. Blurred green garden foliage forms the background.

A spherical deep magenta-pink dahlia with perfectly rounded, tightly packed petals forming a ball-like shape. The petals have a smooth texture with subtle color variations from brighter pink edges to deeper purple tones in the center. Bright green foliage surrounds the bloom, with dark burgundy dahlias visible in the blurred background.

Exploding Dahlias

Thought I'd test posting media from littleOne with images of some of my partner's dahlias 🌸

While I prefer native wildflowers to non-native decoratives, I must admit that these dahlias are stunning 😍
