Serenity...


"Leave room in your garden for angels to dance."


... and bunnies to frolic...

... and flowers to bloom...


Amen.

I'll be linking up to Cindy at My Romantic Home for Show & Tell Friday.
Wishing you all a lovely week,  Donna

Crimson and Clover....

...also known as a "picnic in the park" (or in this case, the backyard)...


Thank goodness I got photos of the Crocosmia when they were in bloom because they are now but a memory...


They're such vibrant flowers, definitely a favorite with the hummers.


How I wish they lasted longer!


And what's a picnic without food?


Overhead picture cam, so you can really get a good look at Little Chip's BIG cheeks!


He totally enjoyed the picnic...


..and asked if we could do it again ... soon! (Of course, Chip.)


And who does the clover call to?


No, no, Little Cottontail. Those are hostas. You want the clover...


Nope.
Still the hostas.

That's better... hop along now...

I am always amazed at how these little bunnies blend right into the background. That's him, right above my watermark in the lower right hand corner!

I'm happy to report that Little Garden Bunny gave Little Cottontail very good instructions on how to get to the clover patch, and the last I saw him, he was headed straight for it.
The humidity is supposed to lift overnight... It should be heavenly tomorrow! Wishing you beautiful summer days wherever you are!

... blooms, bunnies and birdhouses

We are working simultaneously on several backyard projects..


...and we just finished this corner of the garden.


It actually started last year when we planted this beautiful blue salvia. It's in full bloom right now and is a hit with the bumblebees!


The lazy gardener (me) has once again plopped 6-packs of plants down in the rusty white metal plant stands. Over the years I've had really good luck with this easy solution, just as long as I don't skip the daily waterings (the little pots can dry out quickly)...


Black bark mulch has been spread around Mr. Bunny, his cottage birdhouse, and the flowers... (the enlarged birdhouse entry hole is compliments of a family of Sammy Squirrels who lived in it for several winters back when it was still hanging from a tree!)


And now it's time to sit and enjoy the fruits of our labor for a few minutes before we start on our next project! (And thank you, Jill, for telling me about these awesome cottage blue Adirondack chairs at Home Depot!!)
I'll show the entire completed project very soon!
Be sure to visit Cindy at My Romantic Home for her Show & Tell Friday post and a list of other participants!

Is it fall already???


It must be...


....because the "welcome" bunnies are surrounded by gourds, pumpkins, and mums!


But it seems like just yesterday that I took this "spring/summer" picture! Where does the time go??
Happy fall, everyone!
P.S. I got these cute little bunny statues at Target last year in the Christmas section! I just love that store!
