More Flower Fun!

Shiny, Happy Bees...


I was so excited to see that the honeybees have spied my sunflowers!




I just stood there and watched them work their magic.






I really like this one of the little bee coming in for a landing.



I am definitely going to plant more sunflowers next year! The bees need all of the help they can get!

Another pretty flower photo




I am sending this over to Today's Flowers. Go check out all of the beautiful flowers over there!



We planted these bulbs...Ya know, I can't remember when. Anyway, I just noticed this one had popped out today. Isn't it cool! I can't remember what it is either.

Summer wouldn't be complete without these!

my zinnias are blooming! -Today's Flower Post

I am sending my zinnias over to Today's Flowers. Go check out this blog, it is so gorgeous!






I took a little walk through the garden today and discovered that my zinnias are blooming! I have never grown zinnias, in fact, I really didn't even known what a zinnia looked like until this summer. I have quickly fallen in love with these sweet flowers. Daisies are my number one but I have to say these are running a close second.

My zinnia seeds were a lovely surprise gift from Molly the Pirate. She tucked them in with an order I placed for some of the beautiful earrings that she makes for her Etsy shop.





I am intrigued by these flowers. They are so interesting. Each one is unique and the detail in the center is amazing!

Thanks again Molly for your thoughtful gift! :0)

Banana Peppers



I am growing several different types of peppers in my garden this year. This one is a banana pepper. I think it's so pretty.

summer daisy




This week's theme is Pink. It's funny, some of the daisies are pink and some are white on these plants.
