Hello friends,
summer is in full swing around here.
I'm loving every minute of it.
My David Austin Roses are in full bloom as is my lavender.
Two of my favorites.
This is a mix of Abraham Darby and Crocus Rose.
Truly, I'm not sure if that is what these two are because when I planted them ten years ago I did not pay attention to the names. This is my best guess, though.
My new-to-me vintage zinc pots from the Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic Couture store in Santa Monica.
The peony poppies are also doing splendidly.
Lovely mixes of color for my front porch.
We have had little rain the last few weeks and then we had at least four hours of down pouring rain. So needed. I went out the next morning to see how my plants survived and they did just fine. I cut bunches and brought them inside.
My kitchen smells amazing.
They don't last but a day or two but I thoroughly enjoy them while they do.
I hope you are all having a wonderful summer (or winter depending on where you are!!)
Until next time…..
