    Just love all your garden shots. I thought you said things were 'winding down'!.

    My favorite photo is 'Roycroft Favorites', and just look at that poly bloom showing off in the center.

    It is a beautiful jungle blooming at your house. Winding down, ha-ha! Too funny, not exactly lacking for blooms there at your house. I just love, love, love all the garden views.

    Ugh, ridiculous! I love your gardens! I wish I had the space to have a sea of daylilies. Brazen Bandit was my favorite. Can I ask which rose he's under? Looks like a china rose, but that might be wrong.

    I always enjoy your garden shots. Definitely a sea of blooms. Just lovely and I see you've got your kinetic spinner up in the garden.

    Brazen Bandit is just wonderful, what an unusual color. But those garden photos are just breathtaking.

    You are all so nice. I suspect it is peak bloom, but it is the second one. I had a sea of blooms, and then a slow down, and now it is blooming again...I found my first ever rebloom spikes on Johnny Cash today, and I have rebloom spikes on Ledgewood's Pansy Eye. I need to make and keep a list.

    Those who liked Roycroft;'d favorites, The are Ace of Hearts, Eyes of Distinction, and The big red with the poly is Rocket Booster. believe that pinkish appearing one is Malaysian Monarch, but I would have to check that out.

    Thank you Rita and Jean., Rita, you know this collection of blooms grew from necessity as I kept buying and had to have a place to plant them...many of them inspired by your photos.

    Kathy, you can see that reds and oranges draw me like a magnet...

    Brittie, thank you, you have a good eye...it is Louis Philippe, and these blooms are a couple days old so not as red appearing as real life.

    Julia, it is up, but it doesn't spin all the time...just when the wind is right which is good because I really don't want to find a hummer caught in it.

    Thank you Debra...surely it is peak now. I usually remember to take shots along.

    Thanks Val, I love the daylilies.

    Nancy that is so sweet, thank you, but I am a hodge podge planter and will never have the gorgeously groomes and planned gardens like Julia and Floota and many others...mine suit me though.

    I appreciate all of you looking and commenting on my garden...I am waiting to see what calamity is coming next. Last year, I was battling voles until some blessed critter came in and dug them up and ate them...I have got to get the spray and begin to attack the leaf streak, and since I am in Alabama, I am sure rust is waiting to visit...but I bought the spray from Rosemania, so I will try it igf the worst happens. Even DH is somewhat converted to appreciating the beauty of the daylilies now.

    I will keep osting but looking for all of your pictures. I'm glad to see that Debra's blooming is beginning in earnest now, we'll see how much that costs me this year:)
