These are some of my perennials planted around our property.
They make me happy just looking at them.
I think this is prairie primrose.
Tiger Lily, of course.
Hens and chicks.
Golden Sundrop
Asiatic lily of some kind - love the pink color.
Some kind of perennial grass.
Garden Angel - keeping the snakes away!
If you look closely at the last one, you can see some weeds in there too - oops!
I'll bet the Garden of Eden was beautiful. Flowers, fruit trees, rivers, no weeds, no bugs, oh, but I forgot - there was a snake!
Well, we started putting the garden in this past weekend. As much as I hate the work, I cannot deny the quality of taste in the vegetables, and I can't wait to eat the tomatoes, green beans, and peppers. The boys love helping - the younger boys, not the older boys!
The little guys are never too busy to take a call from their Pennsylvania Pa pa! (Does anyone remember what life was like before cell phones?)
The older boys were at the Brewer's game in Milwaukee. They won't pose for pictures anymore, so I have to get "action" shots.
We celebrated Ty's birthday Saturday night with steak on the grill, baked potatoes and of course, cake! He tries so hard not to smile for his mother - but I know how to get him to laugh! Like my clever saying on the cake? I wanted to put "Herd you were having a birthday", but there was not enough room.
Do you notice the warm glow in these pictures? I am using my new flash and "bouncing" the light from the ceiling! What a difference it makes! I LOVE MY NEW FLASH!
So, any of you have your gardens in? What's your favorite thing to grow?
