Oh I love the color of your oil jar. I've been seeking one for at least a year and just can't seem to find the perfect size/color. The 4th was a big deal for my family when my kids were little-we went to a funky cottage resort in the redwood forest for years -swimming pool in the day, campfire at night. Those days are gone but I do like to light a smoke bomb .
ReplyDeletePhillip - your gardens inspire! You have an explosion of colors in your own backyard..a perfect 4th of July celebration.
ReplyDeleteIt was a blistering 93 here on the 4th. It is so nice to see your lovely moist floriferous garden. I love that fuchsia. I ripped out my Tiger Eye Sumac. I don't have to worry about not having one since I have since seen a couple of pop up. ha...
ReplyDeletebeautiful flowers!
ReplyDeleteOhmygoshsogorgeous! The photos even look like it was 72F, close to 90F as it was here.
ReplyDeleteThe Aruncus flowers look like little fireworks--very appropriate.
Hydrangea 'Miss Saori' is so lovely! Quick internet search shows it with dark foliage. Dose your plant has dark foliage? Its hard to tell from the photo.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is a very dark burgundy color.
