Thursday in the Garden

& nbsp;We thought we would start the garden tour down at the Butterfly Garden. He is the Grancy Graybeard, with it's pretty white blooms.


& nbsp;The Vitex, we are looking forward to seeing it bloom.

& nbsp;Pink Verbena. The bees like it.

& nbsp;The Chinese Witch Hazel.


Mommy just loves this shrub. We found it's name in our Wildflowers of Mississippi book. & nbsp; It is called a Fetterbush & nbsp; it's scientific name is Lyonia lucida (Lam.) K. Koch.


& nbsp;Ok, lets head up to the Hummingbird Cottage.

& nbsp;The Coral (aka Trumpet) Honeysuckle.

It starts off a kinda of salmon pink color and then turns scarlet . When it opens up the inside is a yellowish orange. Very pretty, and supposedly attractive to hummingbirds.

OK, lets go up to the house now and look in the front yard.

& nbsp;The Foxgloves, we has pink, white and a purplish pink.


& nbsp;The Johnny Jump Ups are putting on a show for us. We are thrilled with them.

The Mint is doing pawsome this year.

Now we are headed over to Jonesie's to see what the other Feline Gardeners have been up too.
