πŸŒΌπŸŒΉπŸŒΊπŸŒ·πŸ’•πŸŒˆπŸŒΈ My Fairy Garden 2022 πŸŒΌπŸŒΉπŸŒΊπŸŒ·πŸ’•πŸŒˆπŸŒΈ

I know its late but its been a busy spring and summer. Here are the snaps from my fairy garden this year.

Sadly all of my roses died from a cold frost we had this spring out of nowhere. But I have a few little seedlings from the mothers and maybe they will bloom next year.

I had the most adorable little baby bunny visitor that I named "Honey Bunny" he loved eating my flowers and didn't have the heart to tell him no. 

This is a running post, so I will add more as the season goes. I have some gourds just popping up-can't wait to see which ones I end up with.

Honey Bunny, he chewed my pink dandelions up or we would have those. Maybe next spring!



Poppies on the River

Honey Bunny so excited to get a butter cream marigold and a pink french carnation

Sweet William! If anyone is interested in seeds ~ Let me know!


Butter cream marigolds
More poppies... these are giant Bread seed poppies with great rattles that you can use for crafts

 My wild daisy bush. These have been growing on the property wild and I moved them into their own corner of my garden.



Pink Lavender... but when the sun bleaches her she turns more of a white
English Lavender
These were new, Blue African Daisies. The blooms wilt in a day or two but they keep coming up. The centers are gorgeous!

Safflowers, I don't think I will grow these again... they are too prickly for me
More sunflowers. Starting off with a beautiful "Lemon Strawberry" I have been trying to get this group of sunflowers to grow again for three years. Finally! They are so pretty...
Giant Gold


This one is from the group I call "Cinnamon Dust"
Poppy seed pods, they are drying now and look great!

Giant Fuzzy Teddy Bear Sunflower. I had been wondering if any of these seeds made it. But you never know until they finally bloom
Gold with brown center.. bloomed after it finally rained
Its late in the season and there are very few things newly blooming, except for these New England Asters! The bees are having a ball
Pretty happy to see these, the bush is almost 6 ft tall now. It took about 4 years to get this finally established from a little seed!



Chocolate Peppermint Blossom...
Spot the goose...
Scottish Thistle
 
The end of the season is here. I have a few gourds still growing, sad to see the cold weather come!
