Sunday Flowers

When I was young, we would stop and pick up my Grandmother and take her to church. She always went with us. Now that I think back I actually never saw her drive and she didn't even own a car. I will have to do some digging and see if anyone knows why. She did love to garden though and in the summer she brought flowers from her garden to put in our church. I owe much of my love for gardening to her.


So here are the new additions to our garden this Sunday and I would like to dedicate them to my Grandmother Green. If she were alive today she would be proud of my gardens.

This is a Confederate Jasmine.

Bottle brush.

We have our first squash and they plants are blooming like crazy.

This is a daylily that is a cross between a Leomnade and a Plum crazy. We don't have a name for it yet.

This daylily is called Frankly Scarlett.

This is Lantana that I picked one time when we were at a park down in Florida. I pulled up one little root and now I have a huge plant.

This daylily is called Orange sherbet.

Pink Mexican petunia.

Blue Mexican petunia

And finally this is a new rose that my wife recently got.

We had a great day at the Market and at the Tea Festival yesterday. And I am still participating in the 30 X 5 challenge over at Second Cup of Coffee. This is water week so make sure you get plenty. I lost another lb. I am not bragging, I am just saying. :)

Lets all have a great week.
