Garden View, Theodore Payne Foundation, Sun Valley, California [Photography] [Prints]

The image depicts a natural landscape with a clear blue sky. In the foreground, there is a vibrant display of yellow flowers, likely a type of wildflower, covering the ground. These flowers are interspersed with green foliage, including some succulent plants with thick, fleshy leaves. A prominent agave plant with a tall, reddish stalk and yellow flowers stands out in the center-right of the image. The background features a sandy hillside with sparse vegetation, including trees with green leaves. The sunlight casts shadows on the hillside, highlighting the textures of the soil and the plants. The overall scene suggests a dry, possibly arid environment, typical of a desert or semi-desert region.</p> <p>Provided by @altbot, generated privately and locally using Ovis2-8B

The image depicts a botanical illustration of a flowering plant with a dark background. The plant is identified as Panaverium Marilinum, commonly known as the Sea Daffodil. The illustration features a cluster of white, elongated petals with a delicate, curving structure, resembling a spiders web. The petals are arranged in a spiral pattern, with some extending outward and others curling inward. The stamens, visible at the tips of the petals, are yellow with pinkish-red anthers. The plant has broad, green leaves with a slightly glossy texture, positioned at the base of the flower. The illustration is detailed, with shading and highlights that give depth to the petals and leaves. The name of the plant is written in cursive script at the bottom right corner, with the scientific name above it. The overall composition is centered, with the plant occupying the majority of the space, creating a striking visual impact against the black background.</p></p> <p><p>Provided by @altbot, generated privately and locally using Ovis2-8B

At age 72, Mary Delany (1700-1788) devoted herself to her art practice, taking up a form of decoupage to create an exquisite collection of botanical collages from dyed and cut paper. She interpreted many of the delicate specimens she encountered in Buckinghamshire while staying with her friend, the Duchess of Portland, through layered pieces on black backdrops. From the wispy clover-like leaves of an oxalis plant to the wildly splayed petals of the daffodil, the realistic works are both stunning for their beauty and faithfulness to the original lifeforms.

We make a point of visiting LA Succulents once-a-month or so, They always have an intriguing collection of plants for sale – and pottery, too.

I always end up talking photos when we are there, both because they are so pretty and also as a reminder of what I might want to pick up next.
