The Kelly Garden at the Garden Walk 2019

September Beauty

Looking South along first berm

Love the Yuccas.  No blooms this year though

These were actually taken more than a week ago, before the big rains.

Cleomes by the deck

Hostas, Phlox, Sedum etc.

Unbelievable growth of the sweet potato vines this year.

Harry Lauter's Walking Stick very nice this year.

Today’s Harvest

Time to think about canning a few tomatoes.

Yellow sweet Spanish and Red onions. 

Pretty good potato harvest and a little treat for the cats.

Flowers and butterflies Abundant

We just released the 12th monarch butterfly today, with many more on the way. Plenty of flowers around for them to enjoy, and lots of milkweeds to lay eggs on. Here’s some of what’s blooming.

More Delphinium, and the first Purple Coneflowers.
Shasta daisies in background

Common Milkweed and Delphinium, with
Gloriosa Daisy just starting

Love the Asiatic Lilies

Evening primrose is pretty for a week or so

Front door

Cardinal Flowers just beginning. Cattails have formed

Love Astilbe, missed the Clematic behind them

Fireweed I think

I planted the tiger lilies behind the garden when
the area was just a weedy field.  Now the
neighbor's yard, but they leave them up.

Pretty Astilbe behind the Birch, Delphinium to
the side

First Cleome of the season.  A volunteer in the
compost bin.

Number Twelve is off

Moved this Coreopsis this spring from a place it had
been for 3 years without blooming.  Likes it
better here I guess

Stella D'Oro lilies in robust bloom

Monarda is back!
