Every day there is more colour in the garden. It's nice to see, I just wish things would last longer. First one on the vine..
I think there may have been another in that same area, guess we will see. The Iris turn out to be about the same variety as the ones out front, so wish I could have been able to grab some of the ones growing wild, ah well. Catalogues this Fall??
These are the front ones
A few more things that have settled in, recent buys.
I took a picture of this, just because it was pretty. I have pulled as many as I can so that the ones that are left can be kept under control. It spreads so quickly and is really invasive.
One thing that I have found, the little Chili plant I kept inside all Winter has now bloomed since I moved it into the sun. I didn't do that at first because I didn't want it to dry out, gave it a good start. Looks like it will flourish and come in again next year. Thing is the dang peppers are sooooooo hot. Can't eat them but I think I will dry them and make into pepper.
I love how these have turned out and will get those again next year.
The Lilac smells divine. It is blooming well this year, it's the new variety not the old standards.
I showed this little shrub before but the flowers have gone from very pale to a deeper pink. I hope it does not need more light, it's in a shady area.
The water Iris bloomed well and are almost done. I thinned them out last year.
I have this in an old coal skuttle
By the road we are growing Milkweed for the butterfly.
I need to collect more stones now, I want to border the new gardens with them. I want big ones not these little ones.
I will end with a picture of the flowers I got for Alex I just have to get out there and place them.
This blog is about my garden and the outdoors. I am new to photography but I am trying to show some of the pretty things that grow here in Michigan. I love the wild things who visit me and I dont mind if they eat a bit here and there. I like it more if they let me take their picture. As time goes on I think I will try to show you around the beautiful area that I live in as well as my garden. I try to use my own pictures as much as possible but will also use pictures from the web. If I inadvertently use your photo or work without permission please email me and I will remove it or give credit if you prefer. I will give credit when I know who the owner is. I would ask that anyone using my pictures do the same.
