Walking the garden

July 1 to 3

So, really not actually walking the garden, so much as hobbling around it, balancing with one hand on the walker and the other holding the camera.

Sadly, I have been unable to deadhead some of the flowers in the bed in front of the oakleaf.

This Hosta remains one of my favorites.

The Shasta Daisies, with their happy faces, say “summer” to me. The Rose Mallow really put on a show this year and the Threadleaf Coriopsis is finally taking hold.
