August Garden in May......welcome to my park.

This is what it looks like, now, with Grey Cat as sentinel... and BELOW is what it looked like, ten days ago.......
 
And now, the weather has changed and it is turning into a park....
 Anything and everything pink ,with a splosh of orange and hot pink....
 From black and white......
To green.....

Flowers stuffed into anything and everything....

Dead heading geramiums already.

Fairy doors appearing out of nowwhere.

Clematis popping out in purple from their pods...

Begonias starting to get lush.

This is the front stairwell garden. Has jsut exploded in 10 days.

And Cordelia, in the greenhouse, on her table, surveys my tomatoes.

Hanging baskets are just starting to actually hang...

And Grey Cat stands thru it all.

Old chair stuffed with moss and geraniums. Campanula popping out underneath.....one month early.

Pasque Flowers already going to seed.

In the morning sun. Early.Grapes starting .

Back porch with shade almost all through the day, except in the morning.

One of my favourites: Purple Ivy geraniums...absolutely beautiful.

And the roses.You can see one pink rose. The first one in the front. Peeking out.

 And Spencer, lollygagging on the bench, in the morning sun.
Back terrace. Heads are almost buried in green stuff. Almost buried in the rosemary.

Going up the steps to our house. Up the hill. Past lavender. Rosemary. Buddleia. All coming out now....

Only Cordelia remains in the greenhouse to wash muddy paws and contemplate the day.

And my Shell windchimes tinkle at the side of the house. It's August in May. July, at least. Almsot time for Christmas........
