Combos for summer. And it is summer: on Monday, the sun was fierce for the first time in a long time. It wasn't all that hot, but the sun told me to take cover for the next three months. I will.
Dahlia and Slug, unhappy Dahlia:
Ewwww!! Unhappy gardener, too!
Before I could get back out there to cut the slug's head off, a bird came and ate the slug. Good!
Slug free Dahlia. Happy Dahlia.
Crassula shelters lizard; lizard eats pests. Happy Crassula, happy lizard.
Dainty 'Rozanne', bold Iris foliage. Happy contrast.
Fluffy, spiky, fleshy: Hybrid Hydrangea with a Tillandsia and an Aeonium
Lizard on warm slate. Happy lizard:
Koi and food. Happy Koi:
Liatris and June sunlight. Happy gardener!

ReplyDeleteI love the lizard photo, especially the way it is splayed its legs out to ensure it is a close tot he hot rock as possible. Lizards are sadly VERY rare in London, I would love them in my garden.
ReplyDeleteSigh...I love your fish! And lizards and dahlias...you can keep the slugs though. I was thinking about liatris last year, surprised to learn it didn't mind low winter chill conditions. Maybe this fall I'll plant some.
