Can you all believe that it is JUNE already?
Seems like yesterday,that it was far off...
My garden at home here, is blooming gorgeous!
Yesterday, I noticed the first of the Summer Anemones...
Love this wee perennial...
And it is spreading like crazy, which is just fine with me!
It dies away after it is done...to make way for the Daisies and Black Eyed Susans...
Now...
Let's talk Peonies!
My white ones surprised me this morning...I think the blooms are usually later in June...perhaps a couple of weeks from now...but I guess that heat wave brought them to bloom sooner...I have 2 other bushes...one is a pale PINK and the other is a darker richer PINK...no matter the colour...they are one of my favourite summer blooms...all 3 bushes are from my Mom's garden,so that makes them even more special...♥️ The PINKS are not showing signs of opening up yet...so...I will be in bouquets for a few weeks!!
The Anemones are a delicate palest of YELLOW...almost white, but not quite...
I am thinking of cutting a few of them, and make a nice posey...
But...they seem to have a lot of little black bugs on them...I looked it up...and...guess what they are called..."little black bugs!" hahaha!
Anyway...hope you enjoy my Peony pics...lots more blossoms to come!
Not having Miss V for today...we will be picking her up tomorrow, and we will have her for 4 sleepovers!!! Her Mom is taking a few days and going to Boston with a friend...they will be seeing 2 Blue Jays baseball games while there! Her friend is Boston fan, and my daughter...of course...a Blue Jays fan...a much needed break for her...for sure!!
So...4 sleepovers...I am tired already!!
I think we will go to the cottage...not sure if she will manage 2 nights there...
We have a bit more to keep her busy here...but...you never know!
My gardening buddy was very busy here last week..
.
She had to water her wee garden...we added some YELLOW snapdragons...some hot PINK sunshine impatience...some PINK dianthus...and a few perennials to her pots...she cleaned the bird bath for me...filled it up...watered everything...we got her PUMPKINS planted and her SUNFLOWERS are doing great in a pot in the back yard...I think we will take the rest of the seeds to the cottage, and get them planted out there...
She also found a few more SNAILS...this time, they had real SNAILS in them...she watched them for a long time..."They are out of their shells Nana!"
You may remember that chair I found...I have not done anything with it as of yet...{probably won't either}...but I did mange to put it at the front of the house...
She loves to sit there...so...
I think it is perfect ♥️
Hope you are all doing well...and enjoyed and survived the heat wave!! Today is a perfectly beautiful day...breezy...sunshine...low 20's c ...lovely!!
Thanks for hanging on for the long post...
Not sure if I will get back here for a few days...except this evening I will be answering comments...of course...but...after that...I will be devoting my time to Miss V...and making sure that she doesn't miss her Mom too too much...this will be the longest they have been apart in nearly 4 years! I have to admit...I hope I can do it! Fingers crossed for me...I AM OLD!!! hahaha!
Take care...enjoy your day...evening...week...weekend etc...
Cheers! :o)
