WOW! Is all that in your yard???
Ah…summer! It’s wonderful to see life in full bloom. Whenever it gets very hot, rather than complain, I remind myself what it’s like in January.
Wow, beautiful! And I was just thinking to myself the other day, what annuals could I plant to make a rainbow garden to amuse my little daughter, and I got stuck on blue…is that salvia annual or perennial? Your blog is terrific. I also loved the Sandy Hook walk with your old dog. Our old dog would have loved it too (he’s a 12 1/2 year old Golden, and more precious than real gold to me)!
I *LOVE* your Rose of Sharon hedge ๐ Just gorgeous.
And a wonderful rainbow it is! Great photos, Laura.
The salvia is an annual here – think it’s salvia guarantica. I love salvias!
Michelle: those bushes started out as pencil-thin sticks! Sometimes I wish they were the *single* rose of sharon variety, but they don’t make as nice a hedge.
I like everything. Do you have a pond, or a water feature in your yard?
I love the flower tour, Laura. ๐

Just me rambling about birds, books, bunnies, or whatever!
