Asian Lily

 I’m pretty sure the squirrels have been doing a little gardening of their own. The Asian Lily I purchased died but has come back up in a new location. One of the Squirrels must have buried a bulb because I didn't. Now, up pops a brand new Asian Lily right in the middle of my garden!

Magnolia in Bloom

 

Magnolias are among the oldest types of flowering plants and are mainly pollinated by beetles. As beetles move from flower to flower, they carry pollen, helping the plant reproduce. While bees and other insects may visit occasionally, beetles remain the magnolia’s primary pollinators.

Beautiful Weekend Weather

My Dahlia is starting its second round of blooms.

I'm so excited.

See all the other buds around it. 

Saturday, we hit two plant stores. It was a hard job, 

but I limited myself to six little Pollinator Plants. 

I've been giving Bonnie Rae carrot pieces as a treat.

I was trying to sneak up to take this picture, which made her think she was in trouble. 

(She is a food thief, so ordinarily the guilty look would have been earned. )

This is my new Liriope bed

These are my knees after I fell

Inside the Corn Plant

Red Tip Photinias make the Best and Tallest Shrub Fences

I throw my broken stems in my bird bath 

in hopes that something will survive

A nice Sunny Day
