The Garden at dusk and at dawn
are
my favorite times to visit, to be enchanted and to dream.
As the days begin to be more summer-like – the mid-day heat and humidity are difficult for both myself and my flowers.
Around 3 p.m. the hydrangeas swoon – wilt a bit due to the heat – they quickly recover as the temperatures cool in the evening.
They remind me of delicate, but strong Southern ladies.

Most of the roses have spent their spring blooms – I now need to deadhead – clean them and prepare for those who have their second wind.
The daylilies are beginning to take center stage. Some of these were grown from seed – their temporal beauty needs to be appreciated each day –
I dream
about the way I want to see my garden –
full and abundant with plant and blooms –
The garden is so fluid – these lilies were a Mother’s day gift a few years back – they need a new home as they are stretching and reaching for sunshine in this somewhat shaded corner.
