There’s a garden out in my yard somewhere, but its buried in snow. I think the last thing anyone wants to see is more snow pictures so perhaps a travelogue might be more fun. Last June, we took a wonderful trip to Scotland. We hiked in Braemar, Durness, the Isle of Skye and Glencoe. I took a lot of photos of wild flowers, and I hope I have identified them correctly. Here are some of my favorites. Enjoy!

Yellow Flag Iris
and of course, a Thistle
Great post. I love traveling and adore wildflowers. In fact, if the weather allows, I hope to do a bit of hiking in the SC Upstate this weekend. I have a woodland area with trilliums, bloodroot and a handful of other native perennials, but would love to see the Oconee bell (Shortia galacifolia) which is just coming into bloom.
