Flowers...
Yesterday evening I was walking around my garden turning off hoses and thought I had better take some photo's before it all disappeared with the winds that we had been having lately and before the heat started destroying the flowers...
I love Ranunculi's and I generally plant about 3 to 4 hundred or more if I can...
and I buy mixed packets from the Better Homes & Gardens magazine...
A beautiful double perfect white Ranunculi...

A display of petunia's and jonquils around my rain water tank...
and some grinding stones that hubby and the kids have found out the bush...

A close up of those petunia's....

Pink Marguerite's flowering happily...

Bushy Marigold's and Barney the cat in the background...

Isn't this Ranunculi just gorgeous... I think it is the only one like this in the garden so far... last week a large goat jumped the fence and decided to trim all the flower heads of of half of my Ranunculi's and trimmed the new growth off the roses...
boohoo not as big a display of flowers that I hoped for...
Sweet Peas flowering freely among the beds...
Our Spring is so short here once the weather starts to warm up it comes in hotter and hotter then the flowers are gone...
