Explosion.....

One day, there were hardly any blooms, the next day.....BOOM.........can't keep up with them all.

Isn't this just the most lovely shade? Like velvet......

Heart shaped Creeping Jenny.......love how it trickles down the wall.....

Curry Plant



"They are not long, those days of wine and roses: Out of a misty dream our path emerges for a while, and then closes within a dream." (E. Dowson 1867-1900)





The roses at the front finally decided to bloom......must be that nice new , rich soil I plopped down at their roots, early in April.





Roses in barrels......or buckets.....whatever works......





Back terrace, looking up







I see a plum.......I think it's the only one.....all by itself........poor plum.....









"If there was nothing else to trouble us, the fate of the flower would make us sad."
(J. L. Spalding)









Second terrace.....smoke bush and rose and cranesbill....










"Observe this dew drenched rose of Tyrian gardens......................" (C. Rosetti)










Smoke Bush went POOF in the night.....












Tall Campanula, front hill........they seem to like to propagate wherever they feel like....













Cranesbill, Curry Plant, Campanula Takesana..................top tier.....must love the compost.........















"I will be the gladdet thing under the sun........I will touch a hundred flowers and not pick one! " (Edna St. Vincent Millay)
