The gardens by NYEric

[NYEric]

on the "Superblock" where I live there are gardens on all sides. I took some photos of the nearest ones. I only grow 5 plants in any of these so I don't take credit for the pleasant environment. Enjoy!

My 'native' orchids

Great pics Eric and I can see your camera works better outside. oke:
It also proves a point I was making in an earlier post that a great city, even a very large one, can be a nice place to live when you put in gardens all around. Thanks for the show. :clap::clap::clap:

Nice gardens! I like your native orchids.

Wonderful Eric!!! Lots of things grow over there...! And there are lots of colours...

 

[SlipperFan]

That is quite a garden! Thanks for the tour.

 

[SlipperKing]

Yes, quite a garden! Thanks for taking the time out to share with us.

Eric, are your orchids locked up in something? Or just behind netting?

 

[Leo Schordje]

Very nice, the cage is to stop squirrels? I found caging some plants is necessary here too.

 

[Jim Toomey]

What a beautiful slice of heaven!
Did you get a new camera?

Charming setting.
I'm guessing the public does not have access?

Squirrels!? Oh you country folk! Yes they have pointy noses and long straight tails and spread the plague - RATS is more like it!

No, why are the photos getting better!?

The top photos are our building's private garden. The rest are in a public garden.

 

[Jim Toomey]

Yeah, actually they are!

 

[NYEric]

Er, thanks!?

Nice gardens in the concrete jungle!

Always nice to see such green in an urban setting.

Wow... Hydrangea quercifolia..... A shrub almost impossible to bloom here..... Marvellous...
