My garden is in overdrive . . .


Going out into the garden after being away for a week and having had four inches of rain is a bit daunting.

Overgrown is an Understatement.


"I have a garden of my own,
But so with roses overgrown,
And lilies, that you would it guess
To be a little wilderness."

  3. Gorgeous lily shot. We have not had so much as four droplets of rain and at 4pm this afternoon my car was telling me it was 109F outside - when I got out I believed it to be true. Enjoy your beautiful garden.

  6. What a gorgeous capture, I love the angle of view making the stamens look like tiny dancers on a merry-go-round.

  8. Is that a tiger lily? We had bunches and bunches of them around our house when I was growing up...they bring back great memories of fun summers! Thanks for sharing this pretty shot! :)
