Browsing my archives, I found some wonderful tulips from a visit to Seattle’s Pike Place Market. We can enjoy tulips in August, right?

If you have a roomy, shady spot for a Japanese anemone, it has such pretty flowers. I love flowers that come back every year.

Our young ‘Frost’ peach tree is about three years old. It doesn’t get peach-leaf curl and has such fragrant, sweet yellow fruit, even ripening in Seattle’s short summers. Time for a cobbler!

Looking through the archives (I MUST get rid of all those less-than-stellar photos and unclog my hard drive) I found this photo of golden yellow begonias from Seattle’s Volunteer Park Conservatory taken in March, 2010. I really like it and hope you do, too.

Visiting the mouth of the Elwha River in Washington with my family, where the dam removal four years ago has made huge differences to the ecosystem already, we were curious about some driftwood creations on the beach.

What’s in there?

A family trip to the Kitsap Peninsula in Washington included this lovely jaunt to Joyce, WA. The blackberry pie available in the cafe across the street was truly wonderful.

Always so challenging to get the flower border to bloom in concert, right? Even though the light is overcast, the flowers are cooperating, sort of.

Not everyone knows that the lavender plant comes in several colors, and one is pink!

We were lucky enough to have a good rain; Seattle has been quite dry this spring. All the garden plants enjoyed it.

Water droplets like jewels on ribbed hosta leaves. Note the flower buds emerging.

Our berry bushes are producing! Thankfully neither the squirrels or the birds seem that interested.
