This is a shot of about 1/4 of the greenhouse of the large poinsettia grower I visited in late November. They grow anywhere from 70,000 to 100,000 poinsettias each year. They have old favorite varieties like "Jingle Bells" and also the newest colors and types. For a flower junkie like me it's a virtual paradise!

I can picture you running up and down the rows of plants getting your poinsettia fix for the season, Kathy. A heaven for flower lovers...and photographers. Well done.

It looks more like a redhouse Kathy. It makes you wonder where all these "little children" will spend the Holiday.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Kathy, if there were angels too, you could have deleted the word 'virtual' in your narrative.

A treat for the eyes! Thanks, my friend.
