Flowers in my garden

Here are some of what I've got blooming in the garden. Garden looks like crap as I haven't been home that much to weed and water.

Old fashion single hollyhocks

I missed my Japanese iris blooming My Oriental lilies are all budded. I really need this fall to dig up my gardens and divide. It all depends on how well I do with PT on my shoulder. And yes, I have thought about hiring a landscaper but it's just not in the budget. I'm too much a hands on type of girl and would rather do my own gardening. I do have a good crop of weeds growing

Beautiful. Love the Hollyhock. Can't grow that down here really. That double day lily is neat too. It looks really big.

Here are some lilies that I have blooming right now

Oriental lily. Smells really nice

This one I just acquired The landlord was out mowing and weedwacking and he said it had to go There were 2 so I asked if I could have them. He said yes So I got one for me and one for my mom.

Stargazer lily. Very fragrant

These last 2 I just took for grins and giggles of the bumble bee on the bee balm.

Some of neighbors have been over and I have mentioned my gardens look like a piece of crap They all say no that this spring it was gorgeous. Maybe I'm just too picky. But I am disappointed that I didn't get to do some gardening things I wanted to do.Clean up around the oil barrel and make a small shade garden. Dig and divide in the front garden. I wished some of you gardening geeks lived closer. You could have new flowers for your gardens.
