Hey Lady

This little lady bug looks real nice hanging out on the yellow bell branch. My daughter got this great shot!

Entertainment

We thought about putting 'stuff' out to keep the squirrels away but decided they were too entertaining. This guy is working real hard for a bit of seed.

After the rain

I spotted this dark orange day lily after the rain. This is one of the old fashion kind I got from my dad's garden. He was a gifted gardener.

Rainbow of colors

Lantana is an awesome little flower. I love the variegated ones. I just planted this one about a week ago and loved it so much I went back and got another one.

Yellow Tiger Lily

Actually the real name is Connecticut King Asiatic lily, but I've always referred to them as tiger lilies. I have yellow and orange.

Calla Lillies

To me, calla lilies are a very unique flower. They are absolutely gorgeogous and I wish I have lots of them. Today I found this one blooming.

My buddy Luke

My best friend....

A garden gift from above

My first gardenia's bloomed this week. The frangrance is so sweet it is a garden gift from above. I picked a bloom for my mom who is recovering from surgery at my house and this evening she told me that was her little garden since she has not gone outside much lately.

Blue Beauty

I shared my garden today with a beautiful butterfly. I believe it is aRed-spotted Purple butterfly.

Barren Strawberry

This perennial gets its name due to it's likeness of the strawberry plant. It's bright yellow flowers brighten out any flower bed.

Hot Pink

This is a hardy plant, but i don't know the name! I love the hot pink.

Foxglove

I purchased one of these plants last year and split it into two. Pleasantly, both came back and bloomed this year.

Milk and Wine Lily

My dad gave me a cutting of this Milk and Wine Lily years ago. It's really unique with the white and burgundy blooms.
