A little rain today
The garden is in need of a little rain...BUT the rivers are not. Anyway the plants will like the rain and this annual a couple of days ago looked almost dead but yesterday exploded with these little bluish babies. They are very nice against the light green of the plant. Deep purples in the middle and shades out from the middle.

I've found a new love for white! I have several items this year that have white flowers and think they are wonderful. Maybe this is my next garden plan...an all white garden. Have any of you ever built a all white garden and can you share a picture? What were your favorite plants in that garden?
What's with the wind?
No post today as the wind is wipping like no other time! I need to take some more pics to post but not gonna do it when the wind is so bad. So watch out and maybe tommorow will be a better day... Until then...2delloo! Blake

Gaillardia x grandiflora ‘Mesa Yellow’.
MESA YELLOW Gaillardia is in our top picks for introduction to our newest garden adventure. This will prove to be a hearty, continuous bloomer all season and send out new shoots so we can move to new locations and give away starts.
