Very nice assortment Pixie, lovely Poppy!
Very nice! I really like the lily shot.
Victor, your dragonflies are great! Jo Ann & Pixie, can't believe you both still have poppies blooming. All of you being bitten---me included---I've had luck with sweet fern---rub it on before going into the yard---my problem is the clumps are down at the dam---I should transplant some to my yard. Here is salvia azurea that I'm keeping, even though it flops.
Phlox that looks like Victor's....
And an Olallie DL still cranking out the blooms.....
Oooooh! Victor--I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of the look that dragonfly is giving you! LOL
How did you get such detail? Simply beautiful!
NIce still blooming blooms, Robin and Celeste.
Yes Allison, that was plaintain that you put on bug bites.

love that pink phlox Robin
Thanks - let me know how it works.
Active Ingredients: Essential oils 1.72%, Other Ingredients: Water, Vanillin
Love the ingredient list.
used it twice so far... and no bites
please hold
deionized water, vanillin, citronella oil, lemongrass oil, peppermint oil, potassium sorbate, sodium benzonate... that's all of it
Holding...
So the skeeters just slip off ya?
I guess if you used enough... yes... but your eyes would tear up ... it's kind of strong
celeste do you stake your ballon flowers? i noticed a couple blooms here on the ground.
I don't stake mine wha. Some do dive but I find they mostly stay upright if you deadhead butI haven't got the rain like some of you. Do you have pink ones? I can't seem to grow pink ones from seed and I'm wondering if the pink ones are wussies?
I have pink ones... mother of pearl.. they are shorter than my others.. but do pretty well
Weeze advised me to pinch my woosie white ones in the spring that always flop... I can say it helped and they were fuller than the ones I didn't pinch... but all still needed staking ... I have these stakes that the two arms bend around and you can hook them back to the pole... I usually don't hook them and tie a piece of string in the middle to try and keep the natural shape
I have the short one less than 12 inches "Sentimental Blue"
Veronica Royal Candles on the right
I just love Inky Toes with the base of the bear
There is the end of MiniPearl and a yellow poppy that moved in this spring
.The DayLily garden is going to sleep
