Here is my Nikko Blue Hydrangea
instead of blue it rewards me with shades of pink, lavender, and blue
see all the different shades?
peeking through the fence
just love it
What is happening around the Sentimental home?
while sitting on the porch I noticed an excited Morning Dove
something is in the tree
Mama and baby
I have only seen one
My Dahlia is acting like it is on steroids
It is huge for June
and ready to bloom
there is a bug in there?!
the other one is not as large but is ready to burst open too
this one is pink and yellow
It is warm and I think Boots has the right idea
just hang out and relax
Happy Sunday
Ann
Ann,
ReplyDeleteYour florals are gorgeous, dear one!!!
I adore the photo of the Mourning Dove. ..especially atop the nest! We have a pair here on the Prairie which "Mr. Ed" has affectionaley named 'Maude & Claude' (my Bonnie & Clyde was vetoed!)
The pink on the porch is breathtaking, indeed!!!
Something about flowers near the time they burst open that always brings a sense of excitement to the Garden, dear one!
Thank you for sharing these photos with us!!!
Fondly,
Pat
Oh my Ann, that hydrangea has me drooling! It is beautiful, just like the other parts of your yard that I have seen. I think my hydrangea's are getting too much sun?? Mine look nothing like yours, and I mean nothing! Your neighbor hood looks so pretty and peaceful.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous hydrangeas! I am really starting to appreciate them now...it's only taken me about forty years! LOL
ReplyDeleteI want to relax just like the kitty too!
Thanks so much for stopping by.

That's the hydrangea that I want! I may have to ask you later the name again. I could write it down, but I will lost it before I need it.
ReplyDeleteLove the dove sitting.
Two words today: hydrangea and jealous!

ReplyDeleteHi Ann,
ReplyDeleteWhat beauty there is surrounding your lovely front porch. Your hydrangea is just gorgeous! I need to get one of those but I don't seem to have the right spot for one (my first one didn't like its spot and died!).
The dove is so sweet on her little nest. And I like the little lady bug in the flower too.
Have a sentimental day!

My hydrangeas are the same as yours! Glorious, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteGreat summer shots.
If I could figure out how to put my blog on FB, I would.....
Oh my Ann, simply gorgeous! Nikko's do not do well here. :( Have a limelight and a couple others that I love, but they don't put on a show like that. Your garden is gorgeous and I love the pic of the mama dove. Hope you get a peek at the babies. Would love if you linked this to SYC.
