It's totally blooming & not yet dried from the coming hot days. My descriptions are typed below the photos (is there a general rule on that?).
Be still my heart...love these two together...it took a couple years for the passionflower vines to meander over to the cecile brunner roses.
Grow corn - it's fun! That's what everyone keeps telling me so I went ahead and am doing so this year. When does the fun start? Sorry, snarky tired comment, ha ;o) I'm assuming its in the speed at which corn grows and the reward of perfect sweet ears of corn to steam or grill then eat with butter & salt - yum!
I may be in the minority but I'm loving this crazy mash of color and form!
If you love purple this should really do it for you.
This one really does it for me personally.
New Zealand wind grass - wild and lovely!
Left side of the front garden - we bucked neighborhood tradition and have no (mowable) grass. I assume we save on water as well as time. Though I'd love a little patch in the backyard. Maybe someday.
Hot Lips salvia - dontcha love a name like that?
Drowning in irises...it's a sickness. I love all my pretties.
Sweet delicious flax - the backbone of the garden.
Right side of the front garden. Yes, we live next to a pink and turquoise house. Jealous right?
Bird's touch - pinwheel in the forsythia and daahlias.
Hope that was fun eye candy for any plant and flower lovers :o) Hoping to get more gardening on this weekend too.
Hugs and Happy Mother's Day to all you mamas out there!
Devon

I want to walk around your yard!! Gardening is so refreshing and yours is wonderful. I like all the placements of textures and colors you have chosen.
Growing corn, I don't know about the fun yet either. I tried last year and the ears never matured but, I only had one stalk and lots of earwigs that seemed to be munching on the ears. I have six plants this year, I am hopeful for fun too. We will have to compare notes.
Awesome Devon! I love the passionflower.
LOVE! Do you want to come help me plant our garden next week? HA!!
