Shadow Shot Sunday – Living Screens

This ivy (or whatever it is) at Tulsa’s Guthrie Green provides some cooling shade in the summer from Oklahoma’s brutal sun and heat. In the winter it provides some shadows.

A short distance away a bamboo fence (or whatever it is) provides a green all year screen between a parking lot and the sidewalk.

You can tell I know all about plants!! Never had a lesson!

    The second shot is a type of bamboo. The first one I have no idea, but it does cast an interesting winter shadow. Years ago I visited a botanical garden in North Carolina and saw plants they had to put under a lot of shade so they wouldn’t die in their summers. One of those plants was hosta, a plant that is one of the easiest to grow where I live in New York State. Made me, in a way, smile, as I once tried to grow a camilla in my climate (and didn’t succeed).

    That first shows very nice shadows. Have you shown it when it has leaves? Be interesting to see. Oh, why would they plant bamboo? I’m fighting to get rid of what was here when I moved in. The original homeowner even apologized to the next door neighbor, it’s creeped there too.
