Any plant that comes up and thrives on its own is a keeper in my book. Native and naturalized plants are always a good idea because they require minimal care. Everything around you is looking quite lovely. We've had horribly high humidity lately which has been no fun at all. Take care.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07171418303494806370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232521537292473964.post-11063699964367003712021-07-19T22:10:25.797-06:002021-07-19T22:10:25.797-06:00Lovely gardens!

The big picture *is* awe inspiring, and I am also a huge fan of macro shots. We all need to slow down and take time to appreciate the little things and taking those pictures inspires that. Yours are wonderful.

I did notice you had your flowers caged in wire--is that to prevent the deer from eating them or for support? I have to cage so many of our shrubs and flowers or else the deer eat them, even when they are labeled "deer resistant" I do not like to spray them with repellant.Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232521537292473964.post-8751925328614599692021-07-18T17:26:45.423-06:002021-07-18T17:26:45.423-06:00It is amazing how quickly plants "fill-in&quo...It is amazing how quickly plants "fill-in" a garden.
