The roses were gorgeous this Spring and looked nice with the Cape Honeysuckle. Alas this bed has been overrun with Goldenrods. They look nice now that they are blooming, but you can't see out of the Hummingbird Cottage. Once they stop blooming I will have to make sure I dig them all up and next year be more vigilant in keeping them out of the bed.
Whirling Butterflies and the Banana Shrub we planted for Socks.
The Geese enjoyed visiting the Hummingbird Cottage while they were here.

The view from the Hummingbird Cottage before the Goldenrods got to tall.
I really love the roses. And now for some flowers from my Mother-in-law's house
I just love the color of her roses.
Those are all such pretty flowers. We think it's okay to leave the goldenrod since they are just a wild flower.
ReplyDeleteWe love Goldenrod and Mom lets it pretty much grow wherever it wants so it is all over the yard. It is just this one bed that Mom plans to exile it from. We miss being able to see the pond when we are in the Hummingbird Cottage. The Goldenrod got REALLY tall and goes practically up to the roof.
