I Love Summer

I have learned to appreciate shade, as much of my current garden space is mostly shady...I've been compelled to learn about Trilliums and Helleborus and ferns...and wonder about my luck with Astilbe. But at heart I am a sun lover and a lover of bold and bright color...and these are just a few of the creatures that make me smile big..... In the midst of heavy heat and humidity...early in the morning or at the end of my workday I sit on my porch and simply wonder at this and how fantastic nature is.






Thank you, sun!
