PhotoHunt - Hanging



It might be stretching the point but it looks like the Pampas Grass is hanging to me!

Red Hot Pokers!

Bed in Summer
"In winter I get up at night
And dress by yellow candle-light.
In summer quite the other way,
I have to go to bed by day.

I have to go to bed and see
The birds still hopping on the tree,
Or hear the grown-up people's feet
Still going past me in the street.

And does it not seem hard to you,
When all the sky is clear and blue,
And I should like so much to play,
To have to go to bed by day?"
Robert Louis Stevenson

It surely is hanging but even it wasn't it is a pleasure to see this wonderful photo.
Having trouble getting to sleep with these long days?

We had red hot pokers when I was growing up in Scotland. They are very visible in the neighbourhoods around our house. Great contrast between the two plants.

Thanks Colin, I remember them from my childhood too :-)
