One of the fun things about summer is the way the landscape is always changing. I took my camera into the backyard tonight to show you what's blooming now.
We have a row of Rose of Sharon bushes, and they are full of blooms. I especially like white ones with the dark burgundy center.
The phlox are just beautiful right now.
Our black eyed Susans have struggled with the dry weather. Still, they are a cheery sight!
The flowers on the hydrangea tree are smaller than usual, but there are a lot of them.

Very pretty flowers, Mari. I imagine the phlox smells wonderful!
Your flowers are beautiful!
Love all of your flowers. Once upon a time I had some Rose of Sharon.. a very big bush with the white flowers and a smaller bush of the pink...The white bush just died off.. I don't know why? and the pink one got hit by Hurricane Irene... so now I have none... I miss them.
Love looking at your garden and enjoying your flowers!
my compliments to your master gardener! :)
Everything looks lovely! Those globe thistles are so neat!
Beautiful!! You are such a wonderful gardener!
come help my backyard look that good!!
So pretty, you have such a scenic and relaxing yard.
My flowers are starting to look a little tired, I'm sure the excessive heat had a lot to do with it. However, my veggies look great!
So very lovely! Especially like the hydrangeas.
I don't think I've ever seen a 'globe thistle' before. Very unique and a smoky dusty lavender. I like that!!!
LOVE that last one!
I'd love to come sit on that bench and have a good chat with you. Your lawn and gardens look so lovely and peaceful.
My TG loves Rose of Sharon! My in-laws have several lining their driveway. And again may I say, your phlox is breathtaking. I don't think I've ever seen a white hydrangea, and globe thistle is enchanting! Purple is my favorite color!
