A hot summer bargain that I can grow inside this fall. I haven’t had a begonia for a long time and I could not pass on this beauty.
My newer rose has returned with more blooms. This is its second round of buds on this rose.
It is good when a volunteer tomato is actually one of my favorite varieties. The yellow pear tomato was in the main raised-bed last year. I am not sure how the seed traveled that ten feet.
It isn’t impressive at this time but the William Baffin rose has been planted. I am so frustrated with the clay soil on my property. I know builders think I should only grow grass but their layer of clay in hot weather becomes really hard. I couldn’t get a spade into the ground where I had originally decided to plant. Instead I put it up agains the house where the asparagus plants struggle to produce.
The tiger lily has always been a fascinating bloom for me. As a kid, it seemed to be unreally to see a flower that looked like that. I have never seen any other color of the lily but I do know there are some out there. I don’t see them on the market at regular nurseries.
I am traveling to the old place today and will see what the weather effects have done to the place. I will get the old truck and journey to do some more work. Thanks for stopping by today.

My begonia's didn't do well this year, I think there was to much shade.
I like yellow pear tomatoes they have lots of flavor! Hope I can find some at area farmers markets. Your flowers look good! Too bad about your hard as a rock soil maybe you need a pick axe! Dig a big hole and add your own soil before planting:)
Looks like you've had a wonderful growing season this year Larry !
I'm looking forward to cooler days myself, watering everyday is exhausting work, rewarding yes, but exhausting.
What an unusual tomato !
Hugs,
