Good Morning A Garden Stroll and Book Feature

 

Hello

What are your summer plans?

Snoopy has the right idea don't you think? 

I also plan to do alot of digging in the dirt.

On Sunday I did some digging.  I bought this pretty plant.  I don't remember the name it attracts Butterflies. 

Beside it I planted some cuttings  from a hanging basket I bought. 

Not sure what the plant is.  The clerk thought clover.  I doubt it.  It grows long and trails over the basket like String Of Pearls but is finer softer.  We'll wait awhile and see how it grows. 

I bought this basket at Home Depot.  I took out half the Jew.  It was do full!  I realized when I began the process I don't have a shovel or spade or broom!  

More shopping!

And touring local gardens . . .

  There is so much to do here.  I love this garden.  I have been twice.  It is close to the hospital and the Strand.  

It is a beautiful garden filled with flowers and vegetables.  

I love how they mingle together in the same beds.

I am not sure what this plant is but I think it is the same as  . . . 

. . . One I brought home.  There are always several pots at the gate to take for a donation! 

Lots of green . . . 

A gorgeous place to sit and enjoy the beauty of God's creation.  

I read on the Gardens FB page that it is lighted at night.  

On my list for an evening visit! 

 

I never tire if looking at flowers 

and . . . 

Taking pictures and finding surprises . . . 

Look what I found growing among the flowers.  Black Eye Peas!

Pretty little Posey's hiding the peas! 

 

More Black Eyes.  I don't think there really is enough to do much with maybe they are testing to see if they grow!  I will be planting me some in the Spring! 

I always love the Zinnias so bright and pretty! 

 I will also be peeking into neighborhood gardens. HeHe 

This house has its own beautiful gardens.  They have the lovely view of the garden. 

We take a drive ever few days to explore.  

I love exploring our new city. 

When I am not exploring I love reading a good book.  

This week is our Anniversary and so to celebrate My Cowboy I am hosting a book tour.  

 I hope you can drop in at My Reading Journeys and visit the tour and find a great summer read. 

Have a Sparkly fun week!
