Today I shot some pictures of some new flowers. Here is my pink Rose of Sharon bush (strike that--TREE!)

Don't know how I did it, but my lillies are blooming in succession behind the garage (west facing wall).

EVERYTHING seems to have flowers now, including last year's surviving brussell sprouts!

I've turned into a radish-flower-lover, too.

Nice surprise! I found this growing, after I'd done some digging.

It's growing in a mass of grass and dirt. Thought you'd enjoy the irony of a spring bulb blooming in the middle of an August drought!
