| About two weeks ago we were invaded by thousands of butterflies. They were only here for about a week, but it was fun to go outside and watch them while they were here. |
| The Crepe Myrtle should be blooming by next month, The Rose of Sharon is getting ready to bloom also. |
| These daylilies should start blooming any day now. Next to the daylilies are the same roses that were covered in blooms for the last update. I cut them back after those roses faded and they're getting new buds. |
| Here's our container plants, they're all doing real good at the momment. The two larger pots have a wild flower mix that Sonja's parents gave me for my birthday. The shasta daisy was grown from seed last year and to our surprise came up this spring. |
| These roses are doing the same as the ones in front and should have flowers on them off and on all summer. The crepe myrtle in the background and the little rose of sharon in the foreground should start blooming before to long. And hopefully I'll get the round flowerbed in front of the roses planted soon. I'm getting tired of weeding a flowerbed with nothing in it. |
| The maiden grass I planted about two months ago is starting to take off, although the plant closest to the camera is lagging behind the other three. |
| Well, this will be the last picture of the alysum. It's starting to fade now that the temperature is rising. I'll probably pull them out today, as a matter of fact. |
| Everything I planted this spring along the fence is doing preatty well. The only thing to dye so far is a dusty miller plant. The plants in this picture are a varigated privet, a coropsis (mis-spelled) and a couple of Indian Hawthorns. |
| About 15 months ago I started 20 salvias from seed, these are the only two that have survived. It's sorta cool to watch plants that you've started from seed grow and change from one year to the next. |
| I don't know what this is, it's just a wild flower that came up on it's own. I've seen plants similar to this in nurseries so I thought I'd try leaving it alone and see what happens. It's been a nice surprise. |
