Spring and Summer Colors

I hope these flower pics add a little color to your day.

Here's a host of golden daffodils........


Same garden below, a little later.

These peonies have huge blooms and there's the weigela (for Alice) in the middle.


Weigela again...closer.


Same garden yet again......mid-summer


The scanner didn't do these phlox justice. I lightened the picture but it's still too dark.

Here's "Mr. Lincoln"....


And here's me, camera in hand, with Kylie in the garden, where I love to be :) I don't know why Kylie keeps showing up on my blog. We do have 2 other children! Stay tuned.....

I hope you had a pleasant and relaxing weekend.

  1. I MUST be the favourite daughter!
    Hahahahahahahahah. (evil laugh.) When you're number one, you're really number one.
    (and I'm humble too. One of the qualities I like best in myself, I must say.)

  2. You're a frightful child! I can see I'll have to concentrate on getting your brother and sister's pics on this blog....if just to show there's no favoritism here :)

  4. Gorgeous flowers again, but I am developing a severe case of 'green envy'. Admittedly this year was good - we had heaps of green grass around the countryside (not on our lawn areas, though) but of course it is now all yellow as it's gone to seed. I still love the way a green lawn enhances a garden, even if they do take a lot of water. I really miss ours and look forward to re-sowing two of them in the autumn.

    All of your flowers are so bright and 'cottagey' - it must be a total joy to spend your summers in the garden.

  5. Thankyou for dropping in and leaving a message on my blog - I love all your beautiful photos! Our garden is covered in a metre of snow at the moment and as I also grew up in Australia where you never have to bring anything inside for the winter,I find gardening very frustrating here.
    I can´t wait to see the first spring blooms, until then I´ll have your lovely pictures!
