Poppies .. we have Poppies !
Oh, the wings of an Eastern Tiger Swallowtail.. next door visiting
False Sunflower - seeds came from Oklahoma
Ms Hollyhock - a gift from Nature - who knows where she came from?
Hydrangeas upon each other ..
Lake Mac .. a peaceful spot not far down the road
Sunrise through the kitchen window ..
All these birds came to feed on the deck within an hour .. a first time to see so many - and capture them ..
Re-purposing a Mill [ 100 + yrs old ] into apartments - an ongoing process
Silvery Checkerspot
When we moved here [almost 3 yrs ago], only Dogwood trees were in this bed. Songbirds have added Spiderwort, Carolina Petunias - I have moved some Daffs and Day Lilies in here. But, the yellow False Sunflower seeds came from a dear Friend in Oklahoma - she also sent the Zinnia seeds and said ''go scatter''.. this is our Friendship Garden.
