I love your garden photos! So lovely.
-
I was able to get photos before the blooms were beaten down by rain!

*old fashion white peony* -
Teka- love poppies!
-
Teka- always so nice to see your pics! Glad you were able to shoot the poppies before the rain crushed them. The salmon color is beautiful. And I simply must get some peonies. I had some in my Pennsylvania garden years ago. I'm moving to a new house in about a month. Maybe I need to get myself a housewarming present! Though they probably wouldn't be available until later in the year? Or even spring. Dunno.
Anyway, the old fashioned white is classic, and classy. Just like the rest of your gardens! Thanks for sharing!
-
a little good news here which I celebrated with the ultimate in garden luxury. Having enough to pick a few posies.
-
You look great and so do your posies! It's always fun to see what chemo did to your hair. Mine is stick straight and ashblond - it came back curly and grey after chemo! It was fun having curly hair. Then it straighened out again - back to normal. My Aunt said hers was even thicker and more wavy then she started with! So keep us posted on what new hair do you get! Congrads on being FINISHED! Whoo Hoo!
-
Yes, congratulations on finishing chemo! That's a big step toward resuming your life.

Jackbirdie, congratulations on finishing your chemo! Woo-hoo! Love your vases full of flowers. That's why I love my flower gardens, being able to bring some blooms into the house.
-

Jackie- sorry you are having the bad SEs today. Your last time. Onward and upward to recovery after this!

Katy, such lovely home grown flower arrangements. You're done with chemo in time for the move to a new house this summer!
The following unscented roses are pretty and attract hummingbirds to the hummer feeder.
Blooms are separated on the bush.
Blooms are clustered on the bush.
The roses require no protection during the frigid winter, but prune in April then once in May and July apply rose food.
*yarrow*
*stella de oro daylily* Blooms from spring until the 1st hard frost in the fall.
-
Very pretty. Are the roses low maintenance? We have some that never require anything.
-
I'll do anything for a hummingbird.

I'm still trying to take a hummer photo.
-
The rhubarb plants have been fertilized and will only be weeded because the leaf stalks are to thin for harvesting this season.
-
Congrats Jackie.
My flowers are finally blooming!
-

Happy 4th of July 🎉🇺🇸🎆 ! I love seeing all of the photos and hearing from nature lovers from so many places. It's like having pen pals!
Hopefully I will be sending another bluebonnet pic from my front yard, taken in March. Y'all reminded me of how lucky I am to live a few miles from Ladybirds Wildflower Center. It is an inspiring place, year round. When her funeral procession passed from Austin to her burial place in Johnson City, Texas, the road was lined with thousands of people. I was honored to be one of them.
-
Happy July 4th everyone! Love the bluebonnet photos!
-
If you remember I decided to plant my pots in multicolors this year. I think I like it.
-
Nice job two hobbies!
-
two hobbies- spectacular and so cheerful! Well done
-
Two Hobbies, I love the riot of color - so eye catching!
Jackbirdie - belated congrats on finishing chemo and I love your photo with your great smile. Linda.

These poppies are weeds in my onion patch. Years ago I planted some of the pink poppy seeds, and every year I let some of them go to seed and I end up with many of them - I weed out many, and leave some because they are so cool.
