Please take a look at what I saw today. I had to blow it way up so I could see it. But, I could hear it.

Here's what's blooming in the flower gardens. My bff said I need to do tours. This lily is about 8 inches across. It is also about 7 ft tall. It is magic this year.

Well, I got a birdhouse. To put in one of the flower beds.. I am having a hard time figuring out this bed. It does well in the fall with the asters. But it's not a shady, blazing sun in the afternoon. I do like this hollyhock.

Hi to all the gardeners. I wanted to get a birdhouse for one of my flower beds. I know it needs to be wood. I am in Tennessee. Any suggestions? 🌱
