Sensational Sunflowers

I love my sunflowers and it seems so do most the people in my neighborhood. I grow mine in the planted boulevard outside my house so that people walking by our house can enjoy a pretty sight.

Crocosmia Seed Pods

These are the seed pods of the crocosmia plant. I don’t know why I find seeds and seed pods so interesting, but you have to admit that these seeds and seed pods contrast with the green foliage around them nicely.

In July I posted a photo of Crocosmia blossoms.

Love and Peace

Lovely Hybrid Tea Rose – this is a gorgous and colorful rose. I planted it right near the patio in my garden so I can see it’s multi-colored blooms easily when I sit at my patio table.Â Too bad this rose doesn’t have much scent otherwise it would be near perfect.

Hardy Hibiscus

This is a picture of a Hardy Hibiscus flower. The plant comes up each spring and flowers in August, then as it gets cooler the plant dies down only to reserect itself again the following spring. I love it’s large pale blooms!
