None of these were in bloom when I drove off to go fishing a week ago.

sp said...: beautiful! A garden is pure joy.; 1:50 a.m.
Candy Minx said...: Fantastic. It must have felt weird to come home to so much activity.; 8:56 a.m.
Wandering Coyote said...: Stunning!; 12:24 p.m.
A said...: Look at those peonies! They're so huge they can hardly hold their heads up. I wish we had more than a ten-week growing season here. You have a lovely garden.; 2:35 p.m.
Timmer said...: Nice surprises!; 6:38 p.m.
mister anchovy said...: Now the lillies and the hollyhocks have started blooming too. In the storm this afternoon, two hollyhocks were knocked down. I staked them up but don't know if they will be ok or not.; 10:34 p.m.
Gardenia said...: Exquisite! Peonies are some of my favorites!

I remember hollyhocks from my childhood - grandma used to grow them. I know how to make a great hollyhock doll. Ah, a lost art?; 12:30 p.m.
