Pink Makes Me Happy

There's always lots of pink in my garden. It's planned that way as I ♥ pink. Tulips, phlox, petunias, lilies, begonias, geraniums,
roses...
This phlox is one that came up from seed. Even though the next two look the same, they aren't. Apparently they mutate and the colors change.
The "mother" plant, below.
This lily surprised me after church on Sunday.  I wasn't ready with a spot in the ground this spring, so I just put the bulbs in a pot. Later this fall they can go down in the dirt.
The flowers and I enjoyed the last few days of 70's and 80's. Click on the pictures to enlarge.

Next item on the summer list is a new camera as I'm sure I've worn out the one I've been using. (Or broken it).  The I-phone takes fine pictures, but it won't talk to my computer so it is a royal pain to e-mail each picture, etc.  It might be a bit before I do any more posting.

Best of Both Worlds

Today's Flowers and Summer Sundays!
Weekends are going to be shorter now that I'm going back to school. At least in my mind! This unofficial "last" summer weekend meant fun with my daughter, moving some heavy furniture for more painting, cleaning some carpet, watering, visiting, and shopping. And a surprise--someone came and mowed the lawn for me. I'll be finding out tomorrow who my "hero" is!
Each weekend when I go to my mom's and take groceries I enjoy stopping in at my brother's to see his latest garden success. Working from the ground up his yard and garden gets better each summer. This week his dinner plate hibiscus is blooming. He measured one at 10 1/2 inches!
His pretty moss rose or portulaca.
My newest phlox, a volunteer.
The petunias are still needing a trim so they'll bloom during September and October. I like this pink with the sweet potato vine.
If you'd like to enter my give away, look on the side and click to that post.

Again, thanks to The Tablescaper and the team for Today's Flowers. I really appreciate your dedication so that we get to share with our friends.
