I think this flower is Jewelweed.
Chris and I were on a hike in the woods here in Toronto and growing beside the bank of a shallow creek I there were several clumps of these flowers.
They had such a delicate light purple color! Simple gorgeous. Bumble Bees were hovering around the flowers collecting pollen.
This is one of the roses that I grow in my backyard garden – it’s called Chicago Peace. It’s a lovely hybrid tea rose with very large flowers and a mild scent. Quite spectacular growing right beside my patio!
I haven’t grown Asters in my garden for the last two or so years and I’d forgotten how lovely and cheerful they are. Obviously I’m growing some in my garden this year and I’m loving them. They’re such cute little flowers and the best thing about them is that they’ll bloom well into autumn!
My Black Eyed Susans are prolific this year. I don’t know how many I’ve pulled out as they creep into other areas of my garden, but I still have three or four large clumps of these bright yellow beauties cheerfully showing off their colorful blooms in my garden.
I love these flowers. They bloom from late July until sometime in October or so for me. Who doesn’t love a flower that blooms so long – especially one that blooms when most of the others have stopped?
Do you grow daisies or Black eyed susans in your garden?
