In My Gardens

 Japanese anemone

One good thing about having a cooler summer than normal is the blossoms are not fading as quickly as they usually do.

 Phlox


Gooseneck loosestrife

    Gorgeous blooms EG.. I often complain about the time it takes to keep my garden under control but I wouldn't have it any other way.

    Gooseneck Loosestrife!!! We have some very close to our house and I have been trying to identify it for years!!! The owner said she did not know what they are, they have always just called them Turkey Necks!!And none of my pictures are from this angle, it looks like tiny white buds falling into thin air, really enchanting!! Thanks for the I.D. and the gorgeousness!!

    Your Japanese anemone and loosestrife are gorgeous. If they are typical, your garden must be dazzling.

    I didn't know that the cooler temps help to preserve them, but of course that would make sense if I thought about it... LOL... Michelle
