Lets begin the yearly running post of Fairy Garden photos. These are what have bloomed so far...
Pink Yarrow
Sage
This bunny is smaller than she seems, I named her Punkin because she made her home
in the pumpkin patch... in the strawberries. She has an orange patch on her head
Pink Milkweed for the butterflies, they smell just like sweet sugar vanilla mmm
orange milkweed
Hot pink yarrow
Bread Poppies
Showy Pink Milkweed, truly heavenly scent similar to cotton candy
Pink Poppies ...these seeds will be great on muffins ! Cant wait
Fresh Chamomile for tea
Chamomile flower closeup
Another great crinkly poppy. If you do not know, they only bloom for one day and you only have that one chance. They bloom.. the leaves fall into the wind
Powder Pink Lavender.. so happy I caught the bumble bee, she was super fast
Raspberries for jam cookies to go with the Chamomile tea :O)
Oh my, do we have pumpkins... lots, almost enough to make a Cinderella carriage! There are almost 200, no way to photograph them all.
Peach tomatoes, waiting to become mock peach pie :O)
The first of the Lime Queen Zinnias!
Two little butterflies enjoying the Lavender
Hot Pink Zinnia
My little deer friend.. as long as she stays away from the garden :O)
Pink Paradise Morning Glory
Cherry Impatens blossoms... collecting for a nice flower jam
Pumpkin Blossom
An interesting random Zinnia variety. I have no idea how this got into my seeds, possibly from my mom in Kentucky.. but its pretty
Some White Moth caterpillars munching down the butterfly bush... the one that tastes like cotton candy
they must be in heaven :O)
Really excited to see my teacup sunflowers coming up. I have been trying to breed the smallest sunflower. I have had some half this size, but these have survived.
Golden centered sunflower
Beautiful Sunset Bloom
Wedding Cosmos that I snagged from a local farm that hosts weddings.. This is a huge giant variety
Another great Pink Paradise Morning Glory
More great sunflowers..
And so excited to finally see REAL Monarch Butterflies in the garden. It seems I have had every other butterfly but the ones we want to save. And here they are .. all over the butterfly bush. Apparently they prefer the vanilla scented one over cotton candy. Good to know!
It looks like we are nearing the end of the garden this year.. here are a few shots that may be the last.
The butterflies and canaries are super happy... so are the fairies
