When we got home today, I did the same thing I always do, walk my gardens to see if anything new blossomed or grew taller or wider. I was a little surprised, happily I have to add, that the hollyhock I bought, for the first time ever, to replace the azaleas that I had replanted elsewhere, was in bloom. Its blossom is so very pretty, so delicate and graceful and I adore the color!

   
    
 
My garden is almost a study in yellow right now, very different shades of yellow and I love how the yellows make the purples and lavender pop. I tried to get a close up of the  white butterfly feeding off my lavender, that’s why I took two shots, Butterflies, bees and humming birds; I can never get enough of them.
