I stumbled across these near the garden shop below the conservatory where Abner gets a dog biscuit every time we go near the place. Again, I haven't a clue as to what they are but they sure are pretty.

The weather is warm again so we have taken to stopping in various shady spots to rest, have some water and regroup. This is Abner in contented relaxation at the boathouse on the Bass Pond.
and this is his view.
