If there’s one thing that stays routine for August…

… it’s Sunflower Season! And thanks to many volunteers, a few I started, and a few I relocated – there are sunflowers all over the garden – with more just getting started.

There are also Cosmos

Zinnias

Globe Thistle

Butterfly bushes and Butterfly weed.

The Spotted Bee Balm I planted this spring has bloomed… it’s much more subtle than I expected, but it is so lovely!

And last…the Strawberry Blonde Marigolds I started from seed….

The are small, but they are so pretty! I’m going to be saving some of these seeds for next year!
