I've been enjoying garden photos from others so I thought I'd share a few of mine. The last three are from the local zoo. The others are from my yard.

    Very pretty. It makes me want to plant more coneflowers. You have a nice pink combination.

    Very nice.
    Some thing happened to my glads this last year.
    I love the cone flower.

    The pink glad with the star gazer lilies was a surprise. I don't remember planting it. lol Glads have such pretty flowers but the bloom time is short.
    That's a picture of my Ruby Star coneflowers. Family Flowers had those in little pots for only two or three dollars and I bought a couple the summer before last. They've been flowering heavily this year.

    Thanks for your comments. We all need to remember to post our summer flower photos again this winter when there's snow on the ground. : )

    Christie, is that tithonia I see blooming? Mine are 4-5 feet tall and still no blooms. I guess a different variety!

    Love those two pinks together. Don't you just love it when that happens. I do love glads, but haven't mastered the art of staking or caging and most of my purple ones (all that I have) were laying on the ground are finished now.

    Family Flowers? Never heard of them...where are they? I hate to let a greenhouse go by without checking them out!

    The tithonias that are blooming are from a couple that I bought at Wickmans. My volunteers aren't blooming yet. I didn't think I was going to have any but they finally started popping up. Yours is taller than mine so I may have to wait awhile for those to bloom.

    Thanks. I have driven past the one on west Battlefield. I don't think I have ever stopped at those little ones like that.

    I got a flat of pansies from Wickmans this spring. Now, that's a greenhouse!
