Isn’t this the BEST present ever? Hubby and little sis just came back from a 4 wheeler ride and brought me some flowers. They smell delicious and still have the roots. (They are well trained..lol) I am guessing a wild phlox? They smell like that at least. They are now tucked into the flower bed. Weed or not, they are pretty and pink!
Sorry I have not posted or a bit… Lots going on here, as usual…I guess.
Hubby had knee surgery last Friday and is doing great, but he has been off work, so I have been busy with them. Also having a yard sale tomorrow with family.
Anyway, here are a few things blooming this week!
Pee Wee Hydrangea and Guara.
Candy Lilly, I love these. I have the orange-pink and purple. Last year I collected all the seed and almost all of them are coming up.
Shasta Daisy…. Alaska I think.
Daylily
Black eyed Susan's and phlox by the deck.
Another view.
Mallow…. I love this one.
This kind I dug up from beside the lake, it grows wild here. So pretty.
I cant get this all in one shot, it is BEAUTIFUL here today.
Pinky Winky Hydrangea and Zebrina Hollyhocks.
My Mountain Bluet or Bach Buttons we call them. I cut these way back and this is the 2nd round this summer.
First blooms of the Hyacinth Bean Vine.
And some darling little Zinnias…. love this color of pink.
Okay, I gotta get off of here. Lots of work to do!

Hi Brooke,
What a beautiful garden, and blog.
I enjoyed looking at your garden, you are talented!

Is it ever beautiful there! I just love the shot of your yard with the lake in the background.
Cute picture of your daughter! Don't you just love when they do those types of things? I remember when my older daughter was a toddler she brought me a tulip with the bulb still hanging off.
it was worth the wait! everything looks wonderful. My malva zebrena is not blooming yet...and I have to grow the bean plants inside...they hate the weather here!
Well trained indeed. Pretty flowers. I love the candy lily too. Hope your husband is recuperating and good luck with the yard sale.
Wow your flowers are beautiful! I love how your daughter got the roots and all! You trained her right...(-: Now you can have a plant of your own and always remember that special day(-: Happy FF to you!!!!
You trained your garden helper well! They'll last longer when planted anyway. What a great way to remember a special day. Love your blooms.
Lovely flowers (including those with roots attached!) and a beautiful beautiful view.
Good luck with the surgery,and I hope things get less hectic soon :-)
