Our lavender bed is gorgeous this year, and it is all a-buzz with bumble bees. You can actually hear the drone from 10 feet away! I am itching to start working on some fresh lavender wands, and I hope to get a few done this weekend if the weather behaves. It has been storming most of this week, including a doozy of a thunderstorm last night.
We are getting the cottage tidy for another house showing this afternoon. A little while ago, we set out our collection of little American flags in the flowerbeds near the road. Did you know that Sunday, June 14th, is Flag Day? Sure is! I have prepared a special altered photo to feature on my blog that day. So be sure to come back and visit again!

How PRETTY!!! Watch out for those little buzz buzzers, though.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend, Donna. Good luck with the 'showing' although I know this isn't exactly the time you had in mind for a sale!! But, as they say whatever will be, will be.
Oh, and I wanted to tell you, my ONE hydrangea is finally in full bloom; the size of dinner platters as I'm sure yours are also!! Wish I could take a picture for you! ((hugs))

Your lavender looks great! I planted some this year and if it gets as big as yours, I'm in trouble, because its not going to have enough room to grow.

ReplyDeleteI love your lush lavender plant. We have two large pots at our front door entrance but they don't bloom very well in the hotter climate. I just had a peak at your Daylilies photos and they are just beautiful.
