Well apparently I got addicted, and that one panel (the Iris) has become a 6
panelled window (although eventually when *truly* completed it will be 15
panels). The representation of the provincial flowers are simple due to
limitation in size and brick selection, yet the effect is fairly convincing.

Wow, very nice. I loved the two panes you had at BF2004, it just keeps
getting better. Not sure what a Provincial flower is though, guess I’ll have
to Google it later :)

Thank you James, very kind.
I will save you the googling and explain...
Each of our provinces and territories have an “adopted” flower, that flower is a
native plant to that area and in some places even protected by law. So far, in
order from left to right, I have completed Ontario’s Trillium, Quebec’s Blue
Flag/Iris, New Brunswick’s Voilet, Alberta’s Wild Rose, P.E.I.‘s Lady Slipper
and the NWT’s Mountain Avens.
And of course, still needed to be completed is BC’s Pacific Dogwood, Manitoba’s
Pairie Crocus, Saskatchewan’s Western Red Lily, Nova Scotia’s Mayflower,
Nunavut’s Purple Saxifraga, Nfld’s Pitcher Plant, Yukon’s Fireweed.
