I wonder...

if around town we are known as the crazy house with all the sunflowers?



Well hello there, oxalis! I didn't plant you there!



So, Forget-Me-Not is usually a spring plant, right? Well, not when you get the seeds in the ground really late. :-)



The canna is blooming! The canna is blooming! I'm hoping for a few more...



I love how the alyssum flowers are different colors. I never noticed that before.



I guess our "everbearing" strawberries really are!

I can't think of a witty title...

Look at the squirrel on the tree, looking right at me! I think that might be Peanut... Steve's friend that he HAND FEEDS! Oh, and the picture is of the "false sunflowers" (at least, I think that's what my Grandma used to call them, I need to double check with my Mom) that came from Mom's yard.



The Resurrection Lily is phenomenol this year - it has four shoots!





We are getting a second round of blooms on two of our rosebushes. I wish my Great Grandma's Roses would bloom more than once a season.



After what seemed like forever, our ivy geraniums on the fence are looking very happy!

It's August?!

It seems to be a good year for peppers! This is a combination of our peppers and peppers from Common Ground Farm. I sauteed them and they are in the freezer now. We'll break them out later in the year to have with some onions and sausage.



I bought this coreopsis at the Master Gardener Plant Sale back in May, along with a catmint. The catmint didn't do so well, but the coreopsis seems happy!



This Mexican Petunia came from the same Plant Sale, and is finally blooming!



Steve's prayer plant has the most delicate flowers, so lovely!
