Even if I do say so myself, I’ve done a good job of finding a variety of perennials so that I have something blooming from spring to fall. Stella D’Oros are going now–even the ones that were transplanted are blooming, though I don’t know if I’ll get more blooms out of the transplanted ones any time soon.

Stella D’Oro day lily. These are the ones I thinned and transplanted and gave away. They’ll bloom at least once, if not twice more this summer.

This rose looks so nice in this photograph, and always looks so terrible in person.

Lavender that grows along my driveway.

Hardy, low maintenance miniature rose. These is a lovely plant.

What I’ve come to love about the camera is that it brings out the beauty in everything, including the beauty that you don’t notice with just a passing glance.
