who wants to brush the dog?

Poor Nala has been neglected. My whole family & me…got the stomach bug. I gotta say, when i finally recovered, i felt like Dr. Frankenstein, with a twist, “I’m Alive, i’m alive, i’m alive” off to brush the dog.

i bought a mix of zinnia seeds. from the same package, i put half if one bed, the rest in another. However, only yellow zinnia flowers in one garden & in the other are fuchsia, pink, orange & peach. I wonder why?? I love the way the flowers look before they open. It is that…

planted from seed, this is my Nostrum this morning. This one has struggled all summer, but two feet away the Nostrum is thriving. blame it on the sun or…maybe the cat?

almost time to rake the leaves

if you have young children…i think making a pile for them to jump in is a right of childhood. these two kiddo’s are mine. taken about 10 years ago.

it is very easy being green

 i’ve decided, today, that GREEN FLOWERS are my favorite. However, these zinnia’s (grown from seed) from my garden are stunning too. the green flowers…only the echinacea are grown in my gardens…the others are from the grocery store(i couldn’t help it, they were beautiful).
