Old and New

I have been wanting one of these plants for along time and now I have one. This is a Bird Of Paradise. It is one of my favorite tropical plants and I hope that she blooms this year. My friend Reggie gave me this and I am overjoyed with it. Thank you Reggie I love it. I also took these photos as well as a few others with my new camera. Thank you Helene.

I am so happy to see the first blooms of 2010. I am even happier with the quality of the photos. Do they seem sharper to you?
