 After a much needed rain yesterday, today is sunshiny and will be warm of course, it's summer.

Nothing better than strawberries and blueberries for me. 

Hard to believe we will be in July soon.   Seems like just yesterday I was just saying that I would welcome the warm Spring days and Summer.  Well Summer is definitely here and moving fast.  I think time goes by faster the older I get.  


Potted Cosmos looks so pretty growing in the pots, but I never really thought they would get this big as I have not grown them before.  Next year less in the pots, but they are doing well with watering through the day. I just keep a watering can close and filled to give a drink as I walk by.  

I have several different colors growing.  



From seeds I have striped marigolds.  I think I like this type of marigold the best.

Squash flowers are beautiful too.


Lavender doing so well and I have picked some for drying and sachets.  I removed little flowers for garnishing some lemon lavender cookies and maybe some muffins later to be made.  I have some dried in little glass containers for use later.  
Potted pink hollyhock at garage. 
The Black flower hollyhock is growing straight up the dog wood tree.  It's a big one.



Herons Pirouette begonia.  Comes back bigger and thicker every year. I keep it pulled as it gets thick in this area with it.  Very easy to control, so no problem


Rosemary cutting I rooted last summer in pot.  I keep  it cut to shape

Before the rain at late evening.

Til next time....~bh

Happy Sunday

 Earlier with coffee while enjoying birdsong and sunshine.   Cukes growing so well in this pot.  It wasn't this large yesterday.


Grand daughter helped find and pull some rocks deeply embedded in the dirt in the far back yard so they could be put around lamp post with some flowers she planted. 





Good Day to All!
