Hilarious! Hilarious!
Oh, lots and lots.

First, let me share some pictures from today!

1.) Swan River Daisy-- I like this picture even though it's got issues. Mainly the issue is me being foolish enough to try taking pictures in full sun at noon.
2.) Another shot of my lavender blooming. Smiling

3.) I put a little fence by Little Rock (I am naming my beds, LOL!) because it kept getting disturbed, though I hope once things take a bit more it won't be an issue.
4.) A new flower! I think this is an aster of some kind; my cousin will know. I just found it hiding under the orange zinnias.

4.) You wanted pictures of the chamomile. Here is the little area where it's planted, and
5.) a close up. Straw is a great shade for it for now.

6.) A little miracle. I transplanted a balloon flower into this container because work was being done where it was and it was not a great spot for it anyway. I didn't get much roots with it and then learned they are very hard to transplant because it is nearly impossible to get enough roots when you try. Over time all the leaves on it died and finally I cut the stems back low. Then today, to my delight and surprise, a leaf! Actually two, but they are too tiny for me to photograph.
