| Finally my G’s.... Graduation from University...Our daughter graduated this past spring (May 2008) with her Bachelor of Education and is now kept busy with substituting in the schools in our area.
Gigantic muffins that my boys like me to make. They are the same size as the ones from Superstore. Instead of my batch of muffins making 24 large ones, it now makes 6 gigantic ones.
These are the kind of gardening gloves sold at MHA convention each year. I love them. This year I hope to get about 3 pairs. They might last me thru this year’s season.
Garbage box that my husband built. It is raised off the ground, the lid is at a slope and it works very well to keep the animals (domestic and wild) out of the garbage here on our acreage before the garbage gets burned.
The goldfinch are back! This is taken in the beginning of May.
Now for a few daylilies.... Gentle Shephard Daylily

The Globe Thistle always has bees on it in September.
Gooseberries are so good!
The Grapes were loaded this fall! I made grape jelly, grape jam and canned about 7 dozen quarts of grape juice from the grapes of 2 plants.
There are 6 hostas that I took pictures of last summer that start with G. A few of them are mature but the others are still ‘babies’. I bought about 150 new ones last summer, so expect lots of pictures of hostas of all sizes and patterns in years to come. :) Gold Standard Hosta
Golden Tiara Hosta
Great Arrival Hosta
Great Expectations Hosta
Guacamole Hosta
Gypsy Rose Hosta

Gaelic Sunset Lungwort is a zone 4 lungwort. I like the spots on its leaves. Last year was its first full summer and it didn’t bloom then, so I hope it makes it through our really cold winter this year. It is supposed to have pink flowers I believe.
Gay Paree Peony was on the acreage here when we bought it. I moved the original roots and made 5 clumps of them all along the edge of a retaining wall. I have a spreading juniper, Bar Harbour that drapes over the wall edge, planted in between each peony.
I have 3 sempervivums that start with G that I took pictures of last summer. Gay Jester

Granada Sempervivum. When Sharon posted hers she said that hers looked like it had a sunburn. Hmmmm.... wonder why it grew like that? Here is mine. I love the way the camera caught all the little fine hairs on each leaf.

Greuze Tulip
Now, off to getting the H’s ready... Brenda |
