White roes blooming at the outer edge of the Labyrinth Garden

I haven’t quite got the knack of photographing these white roses so that the detail shows, but I couldn’t resist including another picture.  These roses were purchased at the grocery store in a 4″ pot.  I bought several roses that day, but this one has flourished the best.

. . . and bloom.

And a final close-up.  Aren’t they beautiful?

Asters and shrimp plants

This view is from the edge of the labyrinth and includes my shrimp plants as well.

When they bloom, they REALLY BLOOM

Asters in Bloom - Photo 1

This is another plant that has grown all spring and summer and finally burst into bloom — asters!  I couldn’t choose which photo, so I’m going to post all three today.  This first one is from above.

Neighborly Mums

Mums are flourishing in the Labyrinth Garden

My neighbor Dan clipped a few sprigs from his mums last year and told me if I would just stick them in the ground, they would grow.  What an understatement!  Those mum sprigs grew into mum bushes during the spring.  Over summer, they spilt out across the labyrinth paths on either side of the bed.  Then last week, they FINALLY bloomed!
