Flowers to cheer you!

I promised recently that I would share more photos of all the Rose of Sharon bushes we have more than 18 at this writing. They keep spreading each time we plant another one more sprout up all around it. Each flower looks different too. Check out these photos.

Plenty of bees, hornets, hummingbirds, butterflies and dragonflies all around. I had to dodge a couple while snapping these pics.

Here are other flowers on our back deck that are blooming in all their glory. I also added a couple of views of the pond in back of our house that is unbelievably overgrown. The condo association usually has it trimmed yearly but not at this time. Once it is done it does look neater and quite bare. I do love to see all the greenery but don’t like the invasive bittersweet vines that are growing profusely.

The pond is greening up but our lawns are browning, sad to say. That is the way it always is during the summer months with all the heat we have had.

I hope you have enjoyed my photos once again. The bushes are still not in full bloom only some of them are. The side of our house has ten bushes that are not blooming except for one. They were cut back quite far, that is why. As you can see they can grow quite high and large if not pruned in the fall. But they are glorious once the begin and then reach their fabulous potential of blooms.

Thank you for stopping by to read this post and for your continued support. Come back soon.

Blessings & Hugs! Stay Safe, Stay Well and God Bless!
