Nasturtiums

Nasturtiums, rich in colour,

grows fast, pollinators for

bees and butterflies, and

an unfussy plant. 

I planted 4 types of nasturtium seeds

 this year and I'm please with the results.

I planted them in terracotta pots the middle of May.

Jewel Mix,

Climbing Vine

Fordhook Favorites and

Empress of India.

I put the pots outside the last week of June.

They started to flower the middle of July.

The bees love them.

After The Rain

We had rain today.

A much needed rain.

It's been very dry here.

The grass has turned brown.

This evening I went outside with 
my camera, and took some pics.

I love the sweet smell after a rain.

Is he earning his keep,

Nasturtiums

I have a large variety of Nasturtium 

colours this year.
I've never seen this one before. 

Aphids are eating the

 nasturtiums flowers,
on one plant.
I sprayed with dish detergent and water,
hoping to get rid of the problem.

Another new colour.

The backyard.
I have deer coming to eat the apples
and new growth on the trees.
I put a flashing light in the birdcage hanging.
Maybe this will stop them?
Or slow them down?
Probably not......

This pretty Poppy is from seeds, 
 from the Royal Canadian Legion.
 I planted them a few years ago, and 
each year I have a few flowers that return.

Ferns.
