A PREVIEW OF…

 a trip back to Glen Burnie Gardens in Winchester, Virginia. We felt like a ride today (9/17/24). There was thick cloud cover and we knew it was going to rain later, with more over the next several days. But we thought we might be lucky if we started out early enough. This is a planter that I am always drawn to. It has two dragon handles on each side as you can see.  More photos next time as I am tuckered out and am off to bed early.








Thanks for looking and as always, I hope your day is a great one.

    I love these dragon handles, and you got great details! This deserves it's own post anyway! Looks like maybe Coleus in it? Thanks for the bits and bobs answer! We always used to say odds and ends.

    It does look a nice one, deep but not that wide.

    The urn is quite unique Denise. It looks to be cast iron. Lovely flowers and ionic columns greeted you. I hope you are all rested now, my friend. It looks like a good day to be cozy indoors.

    I love gardens as much for their planters and the decorations as for the plants.

    I do not think I have heard of this place - Glen Burnie Gardens. We are planning to go to Winchester this weekend (if the weather allows) for some apple picking...but I might scout out where these gardens are!? Thanks for sharing. You always have the loveliest photos!!

    Sometimes days with cloud cover are the best for photo opps and looks like you made good use of the weather conditions, Denise.
