What we saw on our summer vacation

While we were in Lincoln, NE last week visiting my sister, we went to the Sunken Gardens and the Hamann Rose Garden. Here are a few of the things we saw.

Red Velvet Yarrow - I would love, love, love to get some of this.



Variegated iris:



Bee Balm:



Lady's Mantle (I planted this a couple of years ago in our gardens, and it didn't come back):



Some seriously happy Coral Bells, and a bumblebee doing it's thing on them:





Blooming Hens and Chicks!



Turtle baby statue:



I love old fashioned, white hydrangea:



And, hail - eek!
