EARLY ONE MORNING

In the still morning air, with not a ripple on the water. The perfect time of day.

    Wow. You're inspiring me with your plant combinations. I know you said in a previous post that you yank the evening primroses where they're not wanted. I try but they persist in their attempts to dominate their section of the rose bed here on my corner of Katy.

    Lovely!

    Sometimes I wish I had a walled, herbivore-free garden too. My two remaining poppies will soon produce some flower buds, aka "deer candy".

    Cindy- They do the same here too, but I do like them and quite frankly I doubt I will ever be rid of them.
    Alan- I am relieved to say that our deer don't eat the big pink poppies, bluebonnets, blanket flowers, narrow leaf zinnia, dahlberg daisy. And I see wine cups out there this year. That would be a better place for them instead of my garden.

    Ah, and how still and beautiful it is! The pond really adds to that stillness, and I love the bright red of the poppies.

    Wow!
    This month your garden looks like some I've seen in magazines of Italy, Monaco, & French Proven`ce.
    Actually, yours is better than the ones in the gardening magazines.
    I like that you show a lot of your garden in your pictures. This really helps me to see the nice plant combinations.
    The plants reflected in your pool give you 2 gardens! And to think, you don't have to water the plants in the reflection!Now isn't that nice? LOL

    You have a beautiful red poppy. I used to have some pink ruffled ones, that came back year after year. We moved to another location and the poppy's got left behind.

    Don't you just love the garden in the early morning hours! I couldn't enjoy it this morning. Have company coming so I was cleaning house.

    ♥ those poppies!!!

    We had glorious poppies last year, but no sign of any yet this year. Nothing takes my breath away, the way they do!
