Jean's Been Weeding

Since the last time I was at Jean's house a month ago, she's been doing a LOT of weeding. Lots of her garden hill now looks nice.

She has lots more room for large plants than I do. This is right near her front entrance.

Her garden space is also on a hill, and she has stone steps with an interesting creeping evergreen growing over them. Just ignore the hose. We didn't pose the pictures.

The color of these lilies is stunning!

And 'Stargazer' lillies are always good for a show. It's no wonder they are so popular.

Oh, you want to know how those chicks that had just hatched a month ago are doing? Sure.

Laya is being a good Mom to them.

Tomorrow we'll be at Holland's Art in the Park!

Did a morning road walk. Miles hiked in 2025: 321.6

Some Scottville Flowers

 I managed to do a few things I was supposed to today. And I walked to the Post Office.

Some of these pictures were taken last week, but they are all gardens in Scottville. Still nice color.

This is the Friendship Garden at the Scottville Library.

They also have hydrangeas in this dusky pink color.

And speaking of dusty pink, this is in the Friendship Garden. I had to look it up. I think it's Smooth Oregano, Origanum laevigatum.

This is a lovely annual garden set off nicely with the picket fence.

Well, well, still dealing in dusky pink. This is down the line in that annual garden. It's Celosia 'Terra Cotta.'

Moving along to more formal arrangements, this is one of the planters on Main St. It's getting a little late for the petunias to look good, but the textures and shapes are nice.

And this planter behind the Senior Center is very attractive too. I suspect it's pots set in that box, but that makes it easy care!

Finally, you've seen one of the West Shore Bank gardens in Ludington. Here's one of theirs in Scottville. Similar, but nicer with papyrus and sweet potato vine for more textures.

Tomorrow, I have to severely wean myself off this pet project because I have other things I MUST do. Still haven't gone shopping! (just for one thing)
