In the front yard another iris has opened, a single Autumn Tryst.
A hardy geranium is on the right.

Albion or Hood, I don't know one from the other since they spread. Probably Hood, a June-bearer.
I can't resist posting another Persian catmint photo!
This little clump of Lavender was grown from Dollar Store seed a few years ago.
Two Bronze fennel plant at the back fence are around five years old. They reach 6' high each year.
Also at the back fence, between my chain link (which used to be the only one) and the wooden are ferns, perhaps sword ferns, a common one in Oregon
My COVID pomegranate! I've had it five years. My son bought it at the grocery store. I wasn't going inside then, and saw a rack of plants by the entrance. I told him to buy me a plant, I didn't care what it was!
I was pulling the dead wild grape vines (not all are dead!) out of this dead tree (I don't think it died here, I think it was placed decoratively), and discovered the antlers (spikes) that were here when I moved in, probably from Roosevelt elk.
Rain is expected today and tomorrow. And on that note I am hurrying out back to turn off the sprinkler! Typing the word "rain" reminded me I turned it on hours ago!
It's funny how we turn things on and then forget about them. (For me it's eggs I'm boiling.)
ReplyDeleteI think it's that I can't hear the plumbing from inside here. Where I used to live I could hear that sound from the pipes, not sure how to explain it. But, the faucet here isn't on the outer wall of anywhere I would be.
