Long Island June Garden in Bloom


It is June and my Long Island garden is at its prime with blooms of peony, roses and salvia alongside colorful evergreen shrubs in shades of blue and gold. The peony are displaying the largest blooms I have ever seen and the roses are blooming profusely and it all seems to have happened almost overnight. The gardens were set back later than I have ever experienced with the occurrence of Hurricane Sandy in November of 2012 followed by a noreaster a week later and a winter blizzard in 2013. The gardens seemed like they would never recover but as the temperatures finally started to warm into the 70s and the rains came down in May rather than April the gardens have come to life once more and are doing just fine.

I hope the gardens continue on this track for the remainder of the summer and into the fall.  Its funny how "Mother Nature" works.  They seem to have re-adjusted themselves and are now back on schedule to this gardeners delight.  I am looking forward to what is yet to come.

As Always...Happy Gardening!

Depending on the desired effect, there are many different and interesting ways to the choice of location of the luminaire. The most central is the standard lighting in which a lamp is placed in the middle of the ceiling and illuminates the room evenly. Such lighting is appropriate for each room as the most common in the living room. But one source of light is not always enought, so for example in the study or kitchen setting is required locally, additional lighting.

When talking about putting a lamp - there is scope for other additional effects. Luminaire can be done by one or more parts that can be included by separate keys. Relatively new solution is to put a key that even reduced - increases the power of light.

Another option is a modernistic combination of neon tubing and ordinary light bulbs arranged in the original form ..

Neon tubes are very bright is not good to put in a central location. A bulb with a small wire can become entangled in the jungle of wires and light, which shines like a true sun room.
Of course, reading lamp with lampshade chandeliers and classic art nouveau style are classic.
Many current and lamps are painted lampshades, mostly abstract images that impart a particularly artistic atmosphere in the room.
