Coreopsis 'Zagreb'


Tickseed

July 13/07

2 year old plant....at least quadrupled in size.
my new lavender hedge (surprised by Nu...thanks to Louie)



a humble vegetable garden...in process. yellow bush beans, cucumbers,
rhubarb, mixed mesclun greens, dill and cherry tomatoes (not in picture). hungry yet?

Sometimes surprises are best...



I had no idea what the plant (that is now blooming in brilliant orange) was going to look like when it was given to me from a friend of Dad's. Turns out to be quite the perfect spot for it, next to the yellow coreopsis and all. I believe it is called crocosmia. I'm enjoying it thoroughly!

Things are growing; sprouting, flourishing, blossoming, withering, beginning and ending... it's the story of a garden.
