Flowers

 
From Fireweed to carefully tended Orchid specimens, the long hours of Alaskan sunlight produce miraculous size vegetables and flowers.

Local residents take great pride in sprucing up all kinds of creative areas with floral or cabbage accents.

 

Sod rooves are not uncommon

...and are frequently shrouded in blankets of flowers (or uncut grass). We were told the secret to a lush roof is a sprinkle of Alaska   manure and the extra daylight hours;     DO NOT MOW.
