As they do most Fridays, Eldest Daughter and Youngest Son came by to work in my garden. I had done about an hour of deadheading and weeding before they arrived, nothing strenuous. They did all the hard work.
The Morning Glories are taking over and very soon going through the arbour will be impossible. The left side of the arbour was supposed to be Sweet Peas and they may be under the mass of Morning Glories. Who knows? The Rudbeckias have also self-seeded right up to the side. Beautiful chaos 💗.
This Hydrangea is nowhere near the Morning Glories, in fact it's in the front garden not the back but look at this... ( I spy a poppy in there too).
Thankfully it was not too warm today but tomorrow will be a very warm one. Maybe the last one of Summer? Or is that wishful thinking? I'm ready for Fall.
Thanks for coming by.
How pretty! Nice to see you in the photo too.
ReplyDeleteThose are some enthusiastic morning glories, alright! I guess your arbor was built with more modest flowers in mind. I love seeing your garden in all its exuberance.

I can see children loving to play in that overgrown archway :)
ReplyDeleteGood - Ness, Girl! Those flowers are gorgeous! Love your photo!

I love your morning glories even if they are somewhat rampant in your yard! Even if I start mine early (inside the house), they never seem to bloom before the first frost hits.

The morning glories are beautiful and huge. Soon we won't be able to see you in there. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a blessing that your daughter and son come by to do the hard part of gardening for you. I love Morning Glories, but my husband isn't a fan so I will just enjoy yours. :) Our days haven't been extremely hot temperature wise, but the humidity has been something else! We did have a few nice autumn like days earlier in the week though...just a taste of what's to come.
ReplyDeleteI like your morningglories. We only have the wild, invasive binderweed kind.
ReplyDeleteGosh, your flowers always look so beautiful. So glad you have good helpers to keep them all in line!
ReplyDeleteWhat a loving daughter for your wonderful garden - such a fine working-together in your blessed family! I LOVE the photo with you ! Your flows know you, I think , they know, that you are their friend. The changing color of the Hortensia. I would love to fly some of your "wild" Rudbeckias to my garden! 🌷🌻🌷
ReplyDeleteThose morning glories can take over. Lucky you getting gardening help

I too am ready for fall; the cool crisp mornings, maybe a little dew on the ground and some frost!
ReplyDeleteI love morning glories but have only seen them in France. Such a lovely colour.
ReplyDeleteI love those morning glories. They would grow everywhere down home..where I grew up, yet mom always planted some too.
ReplyDeleteI am also ready for fall ! It was too hot for me! Morning glories are so huge.
ReplyDeleteI'm ready for fall too. That's a very nice photo of you under the trellis!
ReplyDeleteThose Morning Glories are awesome!!
ReplyDeleteWe have had stifling weather this summer and we're all ready for the merest hint of fall's (very slow) arrival! In South Carolina we don't get leaf color until late October, but the nights cool down and mornings are so gorgeous. We will take what we can get. Not being a gardener I am impressed with your abundant and thriving flowers. So amazing. Beautiful chaos indeed. xoxo
