Here is What's Blooming Right Now!

This day lily opened up the other day. These lily's originally came from my mother-in-law. She dug them up from the side of the road, out in the country years ago. I had them at our first house and transplanted some to our house that we are in now seventeen years ago. They were in the back, right corner of our yard but I had to move them when we put a garden in there. They are now along the left side of the yard. Landon has also transplanted them to his area and along the side of the garage. They spread nicely and are easy to separate and transplant in the Spring and Fall. Some of my neighbors have them in their yards too and they originally came from my plants.They are so pretty in bloom!



The Rose of Sharon are just starting to open up too. We have two big bushes along the left side of the yard and some smaller ones. We did not plant these originally.....the birds did! We enjoy these as they bloom for quite a while unlike the day lily's. My brother-in-law took starts from these a couple of years ago to Charlotte, North Carolina. Interesting how these flowers travel around!

Landon's Herb Garden




Here are a couple views of Landon's herb garden. He built this about three years ago all by himself. He has done detailed drawings of previous gardens that he has done in the past. This is only part of it. He has seeds and plants that are ready to go in as soon as he gets the time. He is tilling a garden for Kyle's girlfriend's mother this afternoon. What you see on the side are Day Lilys. He transplanted those a few years ago. They are so pretty in bloom! Landon has many books on herbs and knows what they are good for. His uncle gave him a dehydrator a few years back so that he can speed up his drying process. He then grinds and labels them. I have some that I use in my cooking. Well that sure is handmade! When walking in the woods he is great to have around. He can identify almost anything!




Listed these pretty brass and glass earrings in my Etsy shop today. They are called:
