"Glories" In The Morning

. Sunday, August 21, 2011 .
Peepers is what I am going to call these three.  When I was watering yesterday they were all sorta peeping out from behind something else.  You couldn't really see them until the water got heavy on the leaves in front of them causing the leaves to droop.

I didn't realize that I was getting three in one in this shot.  A bud, an almost bloom and a spent flower.  Kind of like the stages of life...being a newborn, in your prime and those senior years.

A few posts ago I took pictures of some buds and I thought they might be wild morning glories.  Yep, I was right.  Better not let them get away from me or they will take over.

I was watering last night and found these three beauties.




Last Nights Finds

These two little beauties are from seeds that I harvested last year.  I just kinda threw a handful into the air back where the raised beds are just to see what would happen.

I have been hoping that the deer wouldn't find these glads.  I don't remember planting these here...I could have sworn they were supposed to be hollyhocks.  But maybe again not because the deer ate all the hollyhocks we had planted here.  I still don't remember planting them.

I have no idea what this vine is.  But I am going to guess something like a wild morning glory.  I'll get a  pic when they bloom.

Sneaky Ones

I was so worried about our Naked Ladies this year.  I kept looking and looking.  Nothing really blooms until after Aug 1.  So next year I am not going to get worried until August 1.  Now I have them in places that I know I didn't plant.  Thank you squirrels, moles and little children for letting the volunteer to come up in other places.

Found this little beauty hiding under the geranium leaves.

I had forgotten that we had moved the glad to behind the sign post.  There are several budding but this is the only bloomer so far.  Hope the deer don't like the taste of them.
