  3. I love the design of your front yard. You really have beautiful flowers, Greggo, and you know how to capture them very well. Thumbs up!

    Gosh, I even can't remember anymore when last time I listened to Yellow Mellow by Donovan.
    I love that song. Thanks for posting the video.

    Happy Gardening

  6. Donovan was such a favorite of mine - still enjoy a listen now and then. Such nostalgia!

    Your beds and borders are gorgeous, and the hell strip is so much more beautiful than a lawn would be there.

  8. I have that skipper in my garden too. It didn't open its wings for me though.

    Your hell strip looks heavenly.

  18. Beautiful flower and plant combinations. That first photo could be in a magazine! And I didn't know the real name for Mexican Feather Grass, but now I know it is Stipa tenuissima. It is the perfect backdrop for the rudbeckia and yarrow. What an education I get from reading blogs!

  30. Your garden is beautiful! I've enjoyed looking at your site. Thank you for visiting my site the other day. In answer to your question, my hydrangea changes from pink to blue. I originally wanted pink blooms but at this point, I'm just happy it's still alive!

  31. A beautiful array of flowers! The last picture of the butterfly is magnificent.

  32. Gorgeous!!! Love the shot of the rudbeckia, yarrow and feathergrass!! Oh, and the butterfly on the coneflower -- suitable for framing :-) Looks like a happy time in your garden! How is your arm, by the way?

  33. It's funny - I think I shared that same earworm (sans video) back in May. But to me your yellows look anything but mellow - they're positively riotous! I love that first picture especially... (and I see the mellow in that one.)
