Visitor on Lupine

I have not been able to successfully grow Lupine in Idaho in the past. But I decided to try one more time this year. I know that it grows in much harsher conditions because I've seen it growing in Park City, Utah. So I planted it one more time. . . and it grew! This bumble bee is enjoying it as well.

What a difference two weeks can make

I wanted to show you how much my garden has changed in just two weeks. It is really filling in.

Plate size Poppies

These are some Poppies that are blooming in my garden. I can't believe how big they are!

Bush sweet peas

We are having a backyard wedding reception on July 5, and we wanted to use potted sweet peas for the table decorations. I found some Window Box Sweet Peas, Heirloom Cupid at "Renee's Garden" on the web. I planted them in #10 cans on March 14th. They just started blooming June 1st. They have a great fragrance, and they are only about 10 inches tall. I think they will make a nice addition to the docorations.
