Taking a Stroll II - July 2017

What has Gully (the cat) so transfixed?


Not the flowers, surely! They are just fixtures around which to hunt...


...or to seek shade for a rest.


Instead she is keeping her eye on Elsa.
So many cameras in the flower garden today!


So many flowers to be enjoyed and photographed in July!


The fluffy, pink, Southern Belle echinacea below has a funny twist this year.


It is also growing plain yellow flowers.


And orange flowers!


The hanging lilies from Grandma's flower garden are thriving.


One has to crouch down and look up to enjoy these shiny "faces."


What amazing blossoms these day-lilies put forth -- to last only one day!



Sweet smelling phlox


Spearmint taking over the path


Mother-hen and baby chicks


Reaching for the skies!


A new kind of zucchini for us - Eight Ball


Several varieties of basil embellish our summer foods while gladiola bulbs shoot up nearby.


The volunteer bachelor buttons have been a bright spot in both garden and bouquets.
