“Coming in from out of the rain”…more flowers for you!
At my request, Jim slogged around the garden, taking more photos, between thunderstorms yesterday. The first flower is one of our favorites, and it was one of those unidentified perennials in our midst, until recently. Jim is waiting until such a time as the interesting white spider that frequents this plant appears.
The second flower, seen below, is a pink Hollyhock, that grew from seeds sent by a dear friend in Massachusetts.
The third plant that comes back every year is called Echinacea, the root of many herbal remedies.
These look more scraggly than usual….
The photo below tells the story of our summer: we have had too little time to weed. In spite of that, a patch of Gloriosa Daisies that are so ubiquitous in our yard, are blooming amid the grass and the Hosta foliage plants.
Our final picture of the day: a pink, old-fashioned, climbing rose bush.
