Shady Lane

It looks like a good place to live to me, but none of the birds have moved in.

Gardening Couple

Lori gave me these cute little gardeners. They are living in the midst of some great orange daylilies.

92 Degrees

LA Hybrid Lily--these are later than the asiatics. They are holding up well in the heat so far.


Barbara Mitchell-this is another of my favorite daylilies. Actually, I couldn't pick one favorite. I love them all when they are blooming.
Another shot of the daylily/yarrow combination that was posted earlier. It's really pretty today. And one of the few things that isn't drooping right now. At this moment it is thundering, but I am afraid to get my hopes up for rain. Mark's Forecast: All thunder, no rain.

Fairy Rose--and a big one!

Mark's Favorite Daylily

Firestorm

Chrismas Is

This is a little daylily that I bought at Shiloh Gardens, a daylily farm in Pawnee. It reminds me of my friend Cathy, because she was with me that day and she bought one too.

Daylily and Yarrow

This daylily and the yarrow behind it make really good neighbors.

This is an early, small-flowered daylily that has been blooming for a while. This is one of the first daylilies that I bought for the yard. It's always fun to see it come back into bloom year after year.

It's Summer

My new goal is to get up at 5 am.  I didn't get out this morning til about 8, and by 9 the heat drove me back into the air conditioning.

Kathy's Daylilies

One day I came home from work to find a box from Kathy.  It contained these beautiful daylilies.  I love them and of course, they always make me think of her. 

They're especially pretty with the coneflowers.  These are at the front door.

Up and Down the Driveway

I've had these same combinations in these pots for several years.  They're really easy--the creeping jenny winters over, the grass usually stays pretty until after Christmas, and then we just replace the grass the next season.  Every other year or so we have to add new compost/potting soil to the bottom of the pot.

Hens and Chicks

This is one of my favorite spots in PJ's garden.

Hyssop

This is in PJ's garden.  Mama started it from seed.  It's hyssop, but I've already forgotten the name of it.  She sent a start of it for my garden too.  Thanks mama!
