And here are my 'cheaters'. These are flowers I've started from seed in big pots. When the plants get big enough I place them in the front borders (hiding the pots) after the mid summer flowers are finished and cut back for late summer color. I have zinnias, sunflowers, eupatoriums, and tithonia in these pots (not doing so well yet this year).

Also we have some red cannas growing in pots for the hummingbirds to set out in the border.

I'm hoping my garden will 'kick in' a bit more if we get some July sunshine. The 'June Gloom' is getting to me these days and I'm ready for the sun to come out!

I would love to see some more pics of Butterfly Garden set ups. Anybody want to share?? (-: t.
