Photo of a Dianthus- also known as Garden Pinks and Sweet William. These are lovely flowers to grow in the garden border or in planted containers. I usually use them in containers myself and lucky for me, they often reseed themselves so I don’t have to buy more or replant them each spring.
One of the Sunflowers growing in my front boulevard. I like how this sunflowers petals are a little rumpled and how they range from yellow at the tips to a warmer shade of orange on the inner portion.
Coral Hibiscus – Yes we grow Tropical hibiscus along with our Hardy Hibiscus and Rose of Sharon. I guess I can’ get enough of Hibiscus plants! The best thing about having this type of hibiscus around is that I must bring it indoors in the winter and we occasionally get to enjoy a lovely winter flower.
A Bumble bee paying a visit to the New York Asters
I certainly enjoy my New York Asters when they bloom each Fall, but it looks like the Bumble Bees do as well! I often see them traveling to the flowers and then going off somewhere with their back legs covered in pollen. Such interesting creatures.
I’m actually extremely allergic to bees, but I don’t have a problem with the bumble bees in my garden. We coexist peacefully and as I said I enjoy watching them collecting pollen from my large variety of flowers within my garden.
