Fall Chrysanthemum

Originally purchased at a Stop and Shop years ago, they come back and make a bigger clump every Fall.

Excellent banner Zoia!

Beautiful.

Lovely! I like the touch of pink in the blooms. And the contrast with the dark background.

Refreshing and cheerful banner, so well done.

Aww, thanks! My first banner! I'm excited they picked it!

A lovely banner setting capped-off with the stunning chrysanthemums. Absolutely superb banner, Zoia.

Congrats on your first banner. Hope it isn't your last. You did an excellent job composing it.

Congratulations, Zoia And welcome to the "banner club."

I sent them six or seven with that batch. How does this work? Are they now in a possible rotation? Do I send more? How often? I had fun making the ones I made and will definitely contribute some more images but I don't want to be a Banner Pest…🦟

Zoia, On the main page for "Site Banners" click on "Upload a banner." It will show a list of your banners that you have submitted, and it will indicated if they have been "approved" or "waiting for approval" or "approved for yyyy/mm/dd." (i.e. the date it will be used as a banner). The new banners are posted the evening before that date.

If a banner you submit is not approved for some reason, it just disappears. I've had 1 or 2 rejected---not sure why.

Poor resolution, or out of focus pictures probably are the main reason for rejection. Or something that just doesn't represent gardening. Maybe pictures with people or hands might not make it----I don't think I've ever seen a banner with people in it.

Thank you Laurie! I just checked, they've all been approved with upcoming dates on two…how fun! Maybe I'll make a few more now…

I've had fun making banners, too.
