Good morning!

Time for another walk through the garden ..
My hydrangeas are still blooming and I love that there are so many different colors on each plant!
Coneflowers are still looking good even though it has been so hot and dry here. We did have rain last week finally!
The Rose of Sharon is huge!
I am loving this pot of zinnias and snapdragons..

The top sunflower has an identity crisis going on .. its got just a few striped petals..
Limelight hydrangea, annabelle hydranges and lots of coneflowers and zinnias!
The chipmunk hunter..
Vanilla /Strawberry hydrangeas starting to get a little strawberried.. aren't they just the prettiest!
the prettiest zinnia in the patch..
The mailbox garden..
That is one stalk of sunflowers.. so many blooms!
The first roasted tomato sauce from the garden ..
I had to move the vintage wheelbarrow out from behind the zinnias because they got too tall!

Always love to pick the zinnias

Good morning !
Here are my favorite photos from my garden this week !
Coneflowers are the best perenials ever ! They multiply and give you several months of blooms!


The hydrangeas in the backyard are still a little white on top ..
Russian sage , black eyed susans and coneflowers..Love Russian sage too ..it gives such a pretty look to your garden
made my first for this year Roasted tomato sauce from the garden ..if you have alot of tomatoes click on that link and make it! The smell while they are roasting is incredible!


Come on in! The DIY sunflower wreath is on the door..

This morning in the zinnias..


On the back patio ..The basket is a roadside rescue that I planted with mini pansies, alysum ,mini petunias and a couple other lavender plants. Love the little orange faces :) I have 4 wire baskets hanging on the fence back here and they are looking good!
Love this zinnia patch ! So much color!

The sunflowers are still going strong! I read that if you deadhead the multi branching ones they keep on blooming ..so I hope that is right!


Look at this amzing sunflower!

Backyard Garden

Good morning ! Thought I would share a few shots of my backyard gardens .. I picked these little mini zinnias yesterday ..Aren't they just the cutest !
 Theres only a few sunflowers left .. wished they lasted longer !
 I caught Mr. Squirrell sitting on this sunflower yesterday like he was riding a parade float :)
 The fall raspberries are starting to grow now ..all the patches of zinnias are doing great !
 On the back sidewalk theres lots of coneflowers , and of course zinnias !
 More zinnias planted in a long planter on the patio..

A little vignette with a small rummage sale ladder , birdhouse and pots of flowers .. surrounded by bee balm , zinnias and black eyed susans.

 In the front of this photo are some pots with potatoes growing and some pots of pumpkins ,,The back is the vegetable garden, with a few rows of zinnias :) ..There are more sunflowers in the back of the garden ..See the red one ? Just don't look at the weeds ..lol .. because those are what I grow best !!!
 I used my big telephoto lens to take these photos.. Love the bee in the coneflowers
 The finches eating the sunflower seeds..
A bee on a zinnia..
 My first ever shot of a hummingbird !
 All of these sunflowers the birds and chipmunks planted ..
 This was taken from my kitchen window .. A limelight hydrangea , sunflowers and a couple planters on the windowsill..
 Finally the blackberries are getting ripe !
Have a great day ! Thanks so much for stopping by !
I would love for you to follow me on Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest ..all the links are in the sidebar !
