Gardens

Saturday Snapshots

I worked outside most of the day today…….pulling up lots of grass that suddenly appeared in the corner garden and tackling the front garden.  I thought I would share some photos with you…….

corner-garden

This is the corner garden I triumphantly removed the stump from several weeks back.  The jasmine plant I put here is doing well…..loving the new home.  And the violets too.  Bottom right corner you can see the sunflowers.  Here is another shot……

sunflowers-and-blue-sky

These are the sunflowers I planted from the seeds I received from The Great Sunflower Project I had posted earlier.  I hope some of you sent off for them and yours are growing too.  And check out that beautiful, blue Virginia sky!  🙂

sunflower-update

Here are my sunflowers……getting tall.  To the right are Lily of the Valley I got from my Aunt when we went for the reunion the first of this month. 

daisy-gardenia

A bloom from my daisy gardenia plant……isn’t this the coolest looking bloom.  I love the little starfish type thing in the center.  The scent from this plant is amazing.

moon-flowers

These are moon flowers………they bloom in the evening.  According to the package, they look similar to a morning glory (I have some of those planted too!) and have a wonderful scent.  I have never planted these before so I’m anxious to see what they look like.

When I went inside I took these two photos…….I always liked the light filtering in through the blinds in the morning…..

morning-light

And this one of a bamboo plant…….
