On a hot day (yea summer) this is what you will find blooming in our yard...
Our yellow yarrow is always the first of the yarrow to show it's colors.
I am almost positive that Sweet Pap gave us this yellow primrose last spring.
I love this yellow 'paper flower'. That is what I call is because the petals are as thick and feel like wood chips. Anyone know the name?
This is what you get when you don't uses your herbs fast enough. this is the prettiest little yellow tarragon flower.
We planted these red hot pokers last summer hoping they would bloom last year. So far this year we have three. Pretty good start.
Mark will know the official name for these...I just call them little purple flowers.
Love stella doras. Everybody has them. They make a really nice border plant after a few years of growth.
I was surprised to see this when I went around to the side of the house. Didn't realize it was time for the lilies to be blooming. Now I will have to check everyday to see what colors will appear this year. They are so elegant!
I started this from just a little twig from one of Betsy's knockout rose bushes.
Here is a blanket flower I had no idea I had. Mark kept telling me that is what it was. I was sure it was a poppy. I guess I learned my lesson, Mr Green thumbs knows his flowers.
We will soon be overrun by black-eyed Susan's. I'll harvest seeds in the fall if anyone wants some.
I wasn't so sure this clematis on the bed springs on the barn were going to make it back this summer. Seems Mark went on a little trimming spree and cut some of this clematis back. you don't cut some varieties of clematis back. Just leave them alone and the new growth uses the old dried stuff as a trellis. So far so good...keep your fingers crossed.
Now to be outdone...the sweet peas are getting a little plump. Sure wish Ellis was here to help me pick and eat them. Wonder if they would travel very well to CO?
