Lavender Farm by maggiemae

Lavender Farm

What better colour for the gates than this? Saw this on the way into the hinterland of North Otago and made sure we could stop on the way back!

Three good things;
1. Hardly any traffic in the high country - mostly in cloud!
2. Home again and the lawns had not grown.
3. Three turkey drumsticks in the oven.
now that is a color for gates

You certainly wouldn't miss those gates! Interestingly there is a house being built down the road that is a very similar colour!...and the shed is pink!

oh my! "go big or go home"! that is one heckuva colour for gates :D

It sure is attention grabbing!
December 26th, 2013  
That would get my attention if I were driving by! Great spotting. Lavender is beautiful in bloom -- will it be in season when you stop there?
December 26th, 2013  
Perfect colour and a wonderful shot!

@taffy I don't know, Taffy - it was closed! Thanks for stopping by!

Well you cannot miss those

Stunning capture! Perhaps you will be able to get inside and get shots of the lavender? What a brilliant color and great comp. Glad you stopped!

At least it would be easy to direct people to this driveway - you couldn't miss the purple fence.

@joluise The house further on is the same colour! I love the lavender colour too, Jo!

Great color for the gates of a lavender farm. I would be interested to see a picture of the lavender.

My favorite color. Is it really a lavender farm? We went to one this summer and loved it.
December 26th, 2013  
they look like the may glow in the dark.
December 26th, 2013  
No way to miss those! Great shot

Very striking maggiemae....love the pop of the gates & that drive is very pretty.
December 26th, 2013  
Now that is going to always remind people what they grow! Did you take any lavender pics? I love that flower, but I am not really big on perfume scented with lavender.
December 26th, 2013  
That's lavender alright!!
December 26th, 2013  
@espyetta I couldn't see any lavender plants around - they must have been at the back of the large property! I love the scent!
December 26th, 2013  
Wowy color. I wonder how lives there!
December 26th, 2013

Nice shot. Love the color of the walls. Of course they have to be lavender if it's a lavender farm. Any other color just won't do. Nice eye!

Wow...that is a place that wants to be seen! Great colour.
