Blooming

Sky Spirit iris
                                                                        Full Tide iris. I moved this
                                                                    last year to the shade garden.


Love this fuschia colored snapdragon.

Spin-off iris. I moved this last year in front
of Graham Thomas English rose. I thought
the color combination would look good, now
just if the rose opens in time before
the iris fade.

Garden Book Called Mrs Whaley and Her Charleston Garden

I am going to re-read one of my favorite garden books, so I thought I might share the title here. "Mrs. Whaley and Her Charleston Garden" by Emily Whaley. It is a non-fiction book about self and garden re-newal. I still watered some today, even though we had a rain. The soil here is somewhat sandy. Eventually I hope the compost piles I've started will help amend it. I am still digging up the yard to make flower beds. I don't have a tiller, so it's slow-going, but I love having my hands in the soil. I planted a few caladium bulbs in the shade garden.
