It seems Mother Nature went off her meds again. After a week of very fall-like weather, last weekend, things heated up again and stayed that way until Thursday.
How warm was it?
Warm enough to wake the Butterflies up.


The White Cabbage and Red Admiral aren’t a total surprise. They are always the first butterflies we see in the spring. But this little Fiery Skipper caught me off guard.

Not only is it a new butterfly for my collection, but Skippers I only tend to see on the hottest days of summer.
The warm up also had some of the yarrow blooming again.



So is the Delphinium


And the roses…





Well the roses just haven’t stopped.
The weather is much more seasonal now… so I’m guessing there won’t be much more of this.








But we’ll enjoy the colour while we can

Enjoy the extended warm weather!!! The flowers are still so very colorful!

We were back in the 80’s again this week. I had to go water the front beds. I think I even saw a mosquito. It’s crazy.

Your yard is always so beautiful! Is that a burning bush near that scary guy? We had one nice day this past week, but it’s been mostly rainy and cool.
