  1. Oh, whau!! Nature is very generous in your corner of the world! Gorgeous! I have some spearmint planted and also peppermint. Love the tea! Dahlias are flowers that I wish to have. We live in a parsonage and lawn have installed sprinklers and thus I can't plant flowers around like I would like to do :) Such beautiful photos you got!! Hugs for you and wish you a sweet Wednesday!

  2. Thanks...it is very beautiful, but along with that comes lots of work. Gardening is a total 'labor of love', but the rewards are so worth it.

    1. Thanks Ms A. I really love this time of year---getting too old for too much sun and heat--ha ha. I remember when we were younger and would lie out in the sun for hours to get that perfect tan. I wouldn't be able to do it now if you paid me!

    1. Thanks Karen....sometimes I wish the bluejays would stay away. They are really aggressive with the snall birds, but they are so pretty!
