The daylilies are blooming all over the yard. It’s a real pleasure to stroll through the garden to see what has opened each day. And there are a lot more to bloom as you can see in this picture. The daylilies along the front of the bed haven’t blossomed yet. Sugar Green Gardens truly understands […]
The flower beds in the front yard are beginning to fill with color again. The daylilies are coming into their own. The birdbath in the front yard is almost swallowed up by the flowers. The hydrangeas by the front porch are pink to lavender. Just around the corner of the house, the hydrangeas in front […]
It’s easy to take pictures of individual flowers and I love to do that. The detail is beautiful and it’s fun to take closeups for even more detail. But sometimes I like to see the whole picture. I love to visit other blogs, to see what other people are doing in their own gardens. For […]
DH and I spent quite a bit of time in the garden yesterday. It was hot, but he likes to use the hot days as prep for his ride across Indiana in July. “Heat acclimation” he calls it. So I drove the tractor, pulling the wagon, and he shoveled mulch. We mulched quite a bit. […]

The cats like to drink from the birdbath at the kitchen door. Perhaps they like bird-flavored water? 🙂 Zilli looks […]
DD had her first riding lesson this evening. Can you say “EXCITED!” She has been looking forward to this all week. I had planned to get more pictures, close ups, etc., but a it began to rain and they went into the barn to continue lessons there. Next time, I hope to get some better […]
While I’m still not up to par, I am feeling better. Coughing too much to go to church this morning, but well enough to walk the yard with DH this afternoon. Actually, he walked. I rode the mower. Less coughing that way. Hydrangeas are easy to propagate and we should make more of the ones […]
I am feeling enough better that I rode the mower around the yard and checked out the garden with DH. We even built a fire and roasted hotdogs and made S’mores. DD made a double-decker…and ate the whole thing. Doing all that wore me out a bit, but the day was so pretty and I […]
