some surprises, some not!

these are my pentas. i planted at beginning of summer. they have needed more rain. but have fared well despite the lack of precipitation.
not the best image but i am using my sons digital, one of my lenses seems to have quit on me. can that happen? i have had it forever.



my surprise impatient between the rocks.


hostas blooms



"hope" following me around watering.


zinnia, i love the blooms within the bloom!



see what i discovered in my farmers market container. meems,this is the one i was admiring in your garden, right?


i'm sure this is not a healthy flower on the left but i still find it beautiful.



this is up next to our house and i love the colour but no idea what it is.





a birdbath in need of cleaning.

it is a vibrant blue with hand painted flowers, a gift from darling hubby.

i bought a different one for my daughter for mother's day and liked it so much he got me this one.

this has just cropped up in the wildflower garden.





is this a weed or maybe lavender? it is also in the wildflower garden.

this is what happens when you move to a new house.
also when you plant by seed packets containing many varieties of wildflowers.
