Thank Goddess for perennials! At least there’s a spot of color here and there in my very neglected jungle garden.

The foxgloves are doing well and the bees are loving them.

I marvel at how little care some of the plants seem to need. These dianthus come back year after year in a container I planted them in thinking they were annuals.

I’m not much for fussy flowers. If a plant isn’t hardy and can’t do without some level of neglect, I won’t consider it.  Maybe when I’m old, I’ll have time to fuss over my garden. Until then, there just too many other things I have to do.

    Beautiful stuff. Loved the Paris trip.

    We’re so glad we found out about Great Hollow through your blog, Susan. Our 4 year old just finished the microscouts progran, and even though he was a bit young for the long day, he loved. What a great place.

    Keep up the good work. I check here often to view your beautiful photos.

    Visit us here at the Garden sometime soon!

    Joe
