happy perennials

 Sept 15 and just taking pics
of my perennial favs.


All my plants in front yard came from 2 long time friends
so it is great to see them all doing well
they have been slow to take off but
now they are showing off!

 lady's mantle just started this year
young bachelor button started this year
 Phlox just blooming now
(I just love perennials!)
 filling in nicely
 delphiniums get so tall and I cut them down
and they grow back again
They also attract Hummingbirds and we had
twice as many hummingbirds this year (yay!)


morden centennial rose bush
only got a dozen roses or more but
I think I did not cut off all the dead stems
and pruning was not maybe correct last fall
so I am following this youtube video


this wheat grass is new this year
and it is a wonderful filler
it will get huge next year 


this peony is slow but it has only been
in the ground as a baby for one year
so next year hoping for a flower or two or more


this beautiful blue water can has served many purposes
it holds alot of water and easy to water plants with and
it is so decorative too!

Your plants looking amazing! You have quite the green thumb — I'm a little envious because I struggle to grow beautiful plants, but it seems that my thumb is more "black" than "green". :(
Oh, well — I live vicariously through gardener friends, like you! :)
