Flowering Beauties...and Vegetable Garden, too


Oh, those Regal Coneflowers!
A Beautiful Resting Place





What is this -- Beauty and the Beast?

Kissin' Cousins....

Getting Ready for the Take-off



The Hollyhock and the Cosmos of it....



Marching off to War!
Oh, those delicious Sun Gold Tomatoes!



This Cucumber is in Hiding -- Hanging in a Pole Bean "tree"

Now Behold...the Man in the Tree!
(not to be confused with The Man in the Moon)

More Hollyhock Views...




Straight Arrows and Leaning Tower!
Pure white and Soft pink....





Aren't they whiter than the driven snow?

Among the Hollyhocks --

Early Morning colors.


A blaze of pink, with just a touch of reclusivity!



The sentry -- Cosmos among the Hollyhocks.



Exquisite!


"I second the notion," said the Lily!



And the Roses stood guard....
"Ahoy, there," the Geraniums say, "don't leave us out, in this riot of color!"
