garden moments~






my maximilian sunflower is so tall and wide it has collapsed into a 15' circle..







still in shock and awe over my snowdrift crabapple blooming in fall...




finally the greenhouse has dropped to 100 degrees after hitting 127 in summer, i am starting to move plants indoors and starting seeds.






rosie sits up high in the car on her way to the beach


and my favorite nursery cottage gardens in petaluma

garden updates~

after the buck devouring every rose, a few are making an appearance ...









slowly setting up the viewing patio in the rose garden, it needs fencing and decorating...


i adore the elevated view



the lions garden is really coming along nicely with loads of new and divided plants being moved about daily






was surprised with an iris blooming this morning~


the clematis are loving the cooler weather, well anyone would after 118 degrees!


i was stunned this morning to see my snowdrift crabapple in bloom today! it is very confused...






my perennial sunflower maximilian is HUGE, it must be 10'x10', next year i am adding a very sturdy frame to keep in upright










i have never seen a crabapple with berries and blooms...
