Blooming this Week ~ Magic Lilies and ?


It seems like only yesterday that I couldn't wait for my hydrangeas, peonies and lavender to bloom.


Now it is the end of summer and my favorites have bloomed and faded.

But a few flowers remain....




Magic lily!





Hard working zinnias!




Butterfly bushes!



Potted coreopsis!



Annual baskets!




Russian sage leaning out for some sun.

Its getting moved this fall to a sunnier location.

The kitty is a permanent fixture (and camera ham!).
