Kiss Me Over the Garden Gate

It all began last year with a tiny started plant from my gardening friend, Connie which grew rapidly to about 7 feet, speading its arms in ballerina fashion. As the flowers went to seed and dropped to the ground they 'volunteered' to come up this year. I plucked them up and set them in strategic places in this year's garden.



This one seems to guard the 'tomato pavillion' which is 4 feet tall and 20 feet long. More on the tomato pavillion next time.

Speaking of Red...

Red has been my color for several years now, so these pics present some of my faves in the flower world. For example, how about a Shirley Poppy...or two?

Righteous Red Zinnia!

I find that these Righteous Red Zinnias are speaking my language today, the passionate language of living life on the Pazzazzy Bingo Card of Life!

This particular seed was obtained from Seeds of Change catalog which tells us that is runs from scarlet and orange-red, single and double blooms, as well as Pom Pom to State Fair and is spectacular in bouquets. They are right! This is just one of the many in my garden this year.
