In this crazy crazy world we're living in, it's good to escape to a place of serenity to just take in a few deep breaths and relax. Seek out something beautiful among the ashes.

Deck Flowers
A few of the flowers that add color to our lower back deck...
Notes about our back yard flowers:
I'm still not too happy about the lantana that's planted near the back deck. It's not spreading like previous lantana planted there. I may have to purchase a different variety to fill in the spaces. I'll give it a little more time and see.
Since the hosta plants were going so fast at the garden centers, I purchased some extra ones and transferred them into better pots. Hostas make excellent container plants and indoor plants. When a spot is prepared to receive them, I'll transplant these to the ground.
