Garden Joys

The roses are blooming for the second time this season--LOVE 'em!

This is my favorite new design this summer--cosmos (just starting to bloom), giant marigolds, lavendar, and giant sunflowers!

Jen planted the sunflowers in several areas this year. They are so amazing! (Thanks, Gram, for the seeds!)



This (above) is in a planter on my lower patio. The blue flowers smell like candy!





Here is Jonathan's patch for his gardening merit badge. He's got some very successful tomatoes (just coming on...), green onions, and basil, as well as some little flowers tucked in...

I love my zinnias. I have grown them from seed for the last couple of years. They're so colorful and showy!

...And from my deck, a little patch of color that just makes me happy. I love my garden!
