My coneflowers look much different than the photo I posted but according to this link you are correct about them being in the same flower family and called by the same name.
I still say you have an obsession with that goofy (IMO) pattern of your chairs which match the shoes. How come you know so much about Charlotte?
Those are great! If you are painting them, I hope you paint me one too.
I love that chair. You are such a hipster. or maybe I mean a hippie. I’m not sure; all my slang is from the 1800s.
Nice chair!
OOO I love that chi.
love the chair
did you paint the chair? nice. my mom likes orange poppies as well. reminds her of california.
i love the adirondack. that is gorgeous. a real work of art
I LOVE that chair and the poppies are such a gorgeous color. Both excellent obsessions!
Poppy goes with your chair and your shoes in your profile pic.. I likes very much!!
I love the chair!
I HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY YOU ARE CAUSING A FLASHBACK.
Cool!
@lanney - i sure as heck don’t know. @BoulderChristina - i’d have to move in for a weekend, be fed and entertained and provided with beer, and have you not mind that i’m covered in paint. @vexations - goofy??! i have nothing further to say to you today. oh. except that i had a good friend who lived in charlotte a while back when i was more footloose and fancy free. i took a week long class at queens just to visit her. she has since migrated further south twice. darn her. need an excuse to get back to charlotte. beautiful city. @leaflesstree - tanks. @ANVRSADDAY - i’ve had worse obsessions for sure.
@plantinthewindow - it is SO nice when you come to visit. i’m in a pleasant mood or i’d call you a name back.
I love, love, love the chair! Sitting in that would make me so happy : )
Wish I had an ounce of artistic ability. I love your chair. Do you know the symbolism of the signs you have used?
@WakeUpLaughing - i’m looking forward to reading in it. not finished yet. @Kellsbella - i like swirls. upon research it appears to be a very girly chair. which works, because it’s mine.
@ordinarybutloud - already has more. didn’t i mention that i’m obsessed? but soon. (if it stops raining again)
@promisesunshine - are you going to put wheels on the bottom of it and wings on the back? That would be cool.
@ordinarybutloud - wings. if only. could fly just about anywhere in that thing.
Lovely obsession.
What an amazing obsession!
I had ordered poppy bulbs and Todd the gardener had planted them in the Fall. I don’t see a single one out yet. I think I was duped. I love poppies so much.
@ZSA_MD - thank you. but i’m confused now because my poppies propagate with seeds.
@promisesunshine - I got bulbs from one of the “well known nurseries” by mail. Needless to say I am really upset. I can’t remember exactly which nursery it was, but I think I kind of know . So I sent them an email, and no one has bothered to respond to it yet.
@ZSA_MD - are poppies one of those flowers it takes two years to get blooms?

That is a good obsession.
Cute, I like it! Goes well with the poppy.

@murisopsis - @my0615 - @xdeelynnx - @AsToldByKatie - thanks!!
i tried to get rid of the poppies when we moved in. very, very glad that i failed.
@complicatedlight - GOOD. GLAD TO HEAR IT
@songoftheheart - thanks, jo.
@armnatmom - thank you.
@MzSilver - color. it’s all about color. glad you like it all.
@bonmots - thank you very much
@plantinthewindow - don’t seem so surprised.
@promisesunshine - listen, poop-head. I was just asking. : P
@plantinthewindow - it is SO nice when you come to visit.

very cool chair
@godfatherofgreenbay - thanks.
I love it. So bright and beautiful. Love poppys and they have such a wonderful energy.
@Grannys_Place - thanks.
Nice design. Me I’m a black thumb when it comes to green things.
@Zoz36 - it must be pretty indestructible to survive my care. we have house dirt rather than plants.
Delicious eyecandy, probably comfortable too!!
@promisesunshine - Perhaps that’s why several Native American tribes were matriarchal.
Be happy there is flowers in your yard… I have weeds and one rose bush that’s too stubborn to die.
@Zoz36 - i have an excellent display of dandelions too.
@Kellsbella - i hesitate to ask what all you see. am i going to be embarrassed about my subconscious?
They’re nice to begin with when they’re small. But by weeks end they’re just weeds…
Marvelous chair.
@Inciteful - thank you kindly.
I love that chair. So psychedelic.
There’s a lady in a town near here who makes furniture just like that chair, Wynnewood Oklahoma to be exact.
@DislocatedTexan@ireallylikefood - i have a friend who does it too. she got me hooked.
@stuartneaca291 - dude. thanks.
what else would you need – that’s the greatest chair I’ve ever seen
@mlbncsga - sunshine and a good book?
@promisesunshine -
I want to paint a chair! That looks so cool!!!
Oo Oo Oo I could do like VanGogh and Gaugan and paint a portrait of your chair!
@Aloysius_son - that would be wild stuff. then someone took take a photo of your painting of my chair and i could look at it through a telescope.
Holy hell that’s a cool looking chair!!! You are so talented. I couldn’t pick that chair out in a store, I’m so visually blind.
@ordinarybutloud - LLO said to me yesterday, “in what world is that not done?” my world, girlfriend. it’s not done.
@promisesunshine - it needs…more…?
@ordinarybutloud - already has more. didn’t i mention that i’m obsessed? but soon. (if it stops raining again)
@promisesunshine - are you going to put wheels on the bottom of it and wings on the back? That would be cool.
