I'm mostly into my yard plants these days...I grow tomatoes (LOTS of them) & especially enjoy all that blooms & keeps the bees happy here; I'm pretty busy so I
especially appreciate all the flowers that reappear on their own every year...daffodils, flowering redbud trees, azaleas, irises, mimosa tree, daylillies, crepe myrtles,
purple vincas, holly & other shrubs with red berries, and all the other stuff out here...walking thru my yard (especially the back yard) it's my own private park, with
many huge shade trees too. It just makes me feel good to be out there. As common as many of my flowers are, like the 8 large groupings of orange daylillies
blooming right now (both front & back), they really brighten the day with tropical color...I can't help but be in a better mood when I stroll the path among them.
I'm a "recycler"/rescuer type, so it pleases me that most of my irises & daylillies were thinned & unwanted where they were previously, & "free to any home".
They've repaid me handsomely for taking them in.
