Today has been overcast, a good time to take garden pictures! Full sun is great for growing, not so good for showing.






Perennial beds


This apple tree knew I was about to cut it down for non-performance so it pumped out some apples this year.


Purple sage, scabious, and a lime-leaved coreopsis that could be a lot happier


dahlia 'Gitty Up' I haven't seen this in person in almost a year. It's prettier than I remember.


dahlia Art Act


dahlia Maki - this thing is huuuge. At least ten inches across.


dahlia Brushstrokes - not as pretty as I remembered! But still pretty.


dahlia Zorro - I love this dahlia. It's hard to capture its true awesomeness in a photo.


dahlia Mingus Toni - Fun!


dahlia - Nemo

Now. My plan to annex more yard and fill it with flowers is going well.
