(both blogs)
I took a half day off, last week, spending most of the morning on my porch, enjoying the garden for an hour or two. Just doin nuthin special, enjoying the perfect weather....
A morning well-spent, if you ask me...~


One of my moonflower vines (here in the photo below, it's sharing a pot with the tuberous begonias) got big pretty fast~ I've been able to transplant it to its home under my bedroom window, by now....

It grew faster than the one I had planted in the front of my house...interesting, considering it only got morning light, and the one in front of the porch got light from morning till around the noon hour.
(But the morning light reached this potted one about half an hour earlier, so maybe that was the difference?)
Sunlight and rain
The rest of my garden spots are doing pretty well~ here is part of the Artist's Garden, along with Aster (those cats allllways sneak into the frame when they see my about to take a photo~ hamming it up!)

SEe? Rugosus snuck in on this one!

(I got that phlox from my aunt~ it's been doing quite well, considering it lives by the sweltering concrete driveway, and we had that terrible drought, last year.)
When the rain comes
Later on in the week, the rains came in~ we've been getting a nice, soaking rain about once every two days, sometimes every day.

There are more photos at my flickr pages~ if you want to visit, just click on one of the photos, and it will take you there.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful garden w/ us. The kitties add a nice touch to all the greenery. I can see why you want to spend your time there. It's like therapy every time you step outside. :)
Enjoy!
Ha - my kitties run when I grab the camera most of the time!
Great photo of the daylilly with the water droplets in the last picture!
Hi Christine,
I love your photos especially your kitties. Hey I finally went over to the Sister's of Charity home in your last post and it is so pretty there. I didn't stop and get out but I am going back someday with my granddaughter and take photos. Do they not care if you stop and walk around? I mean I live like 5 or 10 minutes from there and my oldest went to school there years ago when there was a grade school in the building.
yes!!! indeed it is a lovely garden!
