Mother Nature's Gift

Pink Phlox with heavenly perfume.
Two sad looking cone flowers that are part of a large bush. It is a perennial. so it has a chance to be more beautiful next summer!

Flowers -Nature's smiles, laughs, giggles
Buds - Promises of Beauty
Blossoms - Bumble Bees' Bistros
Petals - Fairy Kisses
Flower Fragrance - Perfect Perfume

One sunny sunflower of at least thirty!! They are just starting to bloom.
One sweetly scented honeysuckle flower of many. The hummingbirds like this big bush climbing over the deck railing.
Flowers should be easy to plant, tend grow and enjoy. Wildflowers grow in abundance with their bright faces following yellow sun and welcoming hydrating showers with no human assistance. Flowers in my garden, however, are growing with little tending summer. Wet weather and many obligations and whatever, have led to flowers that, thankfully, have some of their wildflower DNA left - enough wildflower genetic stuff to blossom from buds with pretty petals wafting delicate scents. Thanks to Mother Nature for her forgiveness of garden neglect, and the gift of summertime flowers!
