No news...

Nothing of any interest to write about. *sigh* I could make up something. ;)

The only blooms in the garden now are coreopsis and alyssum. There are some petunias, but - and I never thought I'd say this - they are just downright ugly. Mabry picked them so I can't get rid of them. :/

Coreopsis "Moonbeam"...



Alyssum "White"...

You could tell us a story. I bet you're great at that. :)

Very pretty, but now I'm wondering what the petunias look like. How bad can they be? They're flowers after all. ;)

If activity doesn't pick up around here, I just may HAVE to make up a story. :D

Maybe I'll take a picture of the petunias tomorrow. UGH!

That alyssum looks like some alien brain sucker.

Oh gosh!

I smell your spicy brains! LOL!

Such pretty photos.

I've found that most days aren't all that "interesting." Sometimes that's a good thing. :-)

Thanks!

I'm feeling a little underwhelmed with my life right now. It's not that there isn't enough I could be doing, though. I just don't want to. :D

Sometimes, I have great luck with alyssum; other years, I don't. Lately, all I've grown are weeds. I think this growing season is going to get away from me.

One year, you took up ballroom dancing and that was fun. What can you take up this year?

You know, if you made up stuff, we'd never know. Just keep it interesting!

*alyssum still looks wrong to me :D

I have the same problem with alyssum. The last two years it grew well, but this year it's been sort of puny.

The problem is that I've turned into my sorry summer self. Hmmm...what to do...what to do.

I might give it a try and see if y'all catch it. ;)

You do take such beautiful flower pictures! My garden is in an embarrassing state this year, but you have inspired me to do better.

Thank you, Bethy.

Wow, you're easy. If two insignificant blooms can inspire you, you must have been ready! :D

Pretty flowers.... especially the Moonbeam! I love your flower pictures!

Thanks, Allie. Moonbeam is a very reliable bloomer.

The flowers are quite beautiful!

You are prejudiced against Petunias? Awwww... poor posies!

[identity profile] deltamiss.livejournal.com 2009-07-22 02:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you!

No, no! Just these particular petunias. Most petunias are prolific bloomers in gorgeous colors. These aren't. :(

Ohhh... well please post a picture just because?
