just another sunday in the garden with the usual suspects. we arrived to chilly temperatures and loved it! an urge to make a batch of danish dough resulted in a basket full of fresh cinnamon rolls and we started off the morning in style.
the asters in the rain garden are in full bloom
once the sun came out and warmed things up, the skippers flocked to the asters and just about every other flower in the garden.
sedum, autumn joy, before the sun came out and before the skippers arrived.
the berm is looking a little overgrown. the switch grass has multiplied and today we thinned it a bit to make it manageable-it was nearly impossible to get to the weeds around it.
ripe habaneros hanging like little lanterns.
i am just loving the hyacinth beans and their blooms.
over in the herb garden, things are looking beautiful.
my three dollar rose bush, chosen to demonstrate edible flowers and for rosehips, is growing like mad. it has pretty open flowers and is now beginning to develop some hips.
cayenne peppers
bronze fennel with swallowtail caterpillars and lots of seeds
the basil blooms are full of carpenter bees and there are a few honeybees too.
