We had flooding rains for weeks this spring, and now no rain for two weeks and very hot temps and high humidity… so I’m having to water most every day. Still, I love this time of year. Here are just a few of the many snapshots I have taken in my yard this week.
–
Prairie Mallow (Sidalcea malviflora)
This very tall flower was supposed to have been red. :) I like it anyway.
–
4′ tall, White and Purple Veronica in my front flower bed
–
One of many, many clumps of Coneflowers in my yard.
–
‘Nikko Blue’, this is the bluest of my hydrangeas ~ light amethyst Astilbe
–
Small lamp post bed with pentas, angelonia, salvia, celosia ~ Iron Cross Oxalis with purple shamrocks and baby hostas and heucheras in the secret garden
–
In-ground fountain in the secret garden, surrounded by hostas and astilbes. The led lights in this fountain cycle through several different colors
and at night, it lights up the tree canopy overhead with glowing colors.
