photos taken August 10th 2024 of pink phlox and purple liatris.

This week we finally got a little moisture and coolness, and also my middle garden surprised me with a really pretty selection of pink and purple flowers that hadn’t quite happened before.  It would have been even pinky-purpley-er if the liatris in that bed were caught up with the program, but even still it was a really pretty August surprise.

Looking back 1-2 weeks and 1-2 years agrees that it’s purple-flowers time (my ebb-tide rose is blooming now too, it just didn’t make it in frame) and also about time for sunflowers…which is sad because almost no sunflowers seeded this year.

Looking back 2-4 weeks and 2-4 years is also saying sunflowers, but also some other pretties too.  Things might be a bit off-script right now, but sometimes that will just mean more nice surprises.

…This week my garden is kind of nice and green and pink.
