Rainy Day Smoke Bush

In the Garden
It’s been raining steadily for a couple of days. While the rain may not be appealing to the Memorial Day vacationers who have come to town, it has left the garden covered in millions of tiny round jewels. Here, they’re hanging from the buds of a Smoke Bush, (Cotinus coggygria ‘Purpurea’).
Make sure to visit Lisa’s Chaos for Macro Monday.
