Sunflowers, Great to grow and then cut to put around your home. Just watch out for the pollen. If anything I'm helping the bees out right?

These guys are quite tall. Look at my privacy fence and my neighbors house! Happy summer!!!

Sunflowers, how can you not smile when you look at them ? My dad always planted them for me and this is my result a couple years ago. My neighbor actually took me into her home for the first time to have me look at her sunflower decor and also look out her kitchen window to see my enormous sunflowers growing right outside the window. She thought I knew she loved sunflowers. What a coincidence? So I'm trying it again this year. A couple of varieties.Wont' she be surprised.

Time to plant..... My garden, one of them is filled with sweet potato vine. I love it's bright lime green color. I also have kale, inpatients and coleus. I change my color scheme every year, but usually it's monochromatic for the most part. Which is unlike me, considering I spend all day mixing colors and  flowers and textures. This picture is from a few years ago, I will post this years when things fill in a little more. 

The beautiful and unique phalaenopsis   orchid. Just look at it's detail and color, as if it was painted by hand. Orchids amaze me. This one is growing in my kitchen. There are so many species and there petals serve as attracting insects for pollination. phalaenopsis is one of the most popular orchids for selling potted. In nature they are typically in warm temps but are adaptable to conditions more comfortable for human habitation.

Pink and lime green, gotta love it! It's become so popular. With those beautiful Esperance roses and hydrangea, heather and a touch of bear grass and don't let me forget one of my favorites.... viburnum.

This design is stunning. Filled with mokara orchids, cymbidium orchids, roses, sorbonne lilies, hyacinth and many others. This arrangement costs a pretty penny. I'm sure the lady who received it just loved it. I did.

Simple and tiny but extravagant ! Orchids and baby pink tulips in a mound  on top of a glass cube with beautiful celery colored satin ribbon. Great for a new mom or grandma.

This rose is soooo pretty I just had to show another picture of it! David Austin Roses. Beautiful garden rose, which opens fast, comes in many colors and is quite fragrant.
