Swarovski Crystal Lady's Mantle
by Cliff Sharples (chief cultivator)
Morning dew and newly formed lady's mantle leaves created a stunning display this morning!
Early Morning Garden
Since my twin boys thought it would be fun to get me up at 5:15am this morning, I wrangled them on a garden tour as the sun was rising. While sending them on "go fetch" missions, I stalked around with my camera and came across nature's artistry with one of her favorite mediums - morning dew. Newly formed leaves, with their fuzzy, water repellent leaves, made the perfect canvas for encrusting each leaf in a perfect crown of crystal clear jewels. A perfect moment... until I showed Tuck & Jones who found greater pleasure in smashing the water beads onto each other!
