Now if I can get Calendula to grow in my yard… 
I haven’t had much luck with that, this spring the weather was crazy.
With much love always

Thank you @Jeannie1 I really love them! & I just received the bulbs for red spider lilies & I will be getting a bulb for a dinner plate dahlia!
Originally when I went outside just before during my liminal time, there wasn’t a fully bloomed flower for me to take a picture of so I took pictures over the bay & ocean from a right of way by my home & posted them here.
I went outside after 7 AM though & this was facing me:

Love it @Jeannie1
I have been thinking about putting some hooks in the ceiling to hang plants from and a Wondering Jew would be perfect for this. My cats 
eat everything I try to grow, so I need to just put it out of their reach.

You’re welcome as always! I think that may be the end unless one is hiding that I didn’t see, which is entirely possible. It was fun to share them as I noticed flowers blooming the first few times I go outside in the morning.

I have to confess, here in New England since I moved I have not been able to grow the flowers I want since I’m used to a south Florida climate, but as an herbalist I forced myself to learn plants, herbs and veggies. Next year, goddess willing, I’ll do more with flowers. I have a couple of hydrangeas and roses and sunflowers, a few annuals here and there scattered about, and two terribly sick ferns (I know, who can kill a fern?!).
Here is a picture of my vegetable garden harvest this morning, pretty much the final biggish crop of the season. It’s dwindled already, but I do still have a bunch of herbs and tomatoes that will pop soon.

So digging the purple peppers!!!
And … I, 100%, can kill a fern 
I can only grow them outside for some reason.

Look at that beautiful harvest! 
Perhaps its not the same crops as down in Florida, but you’ve clearly adapted well and have a thriving New England garden, Jan 
Congrats to you on the successful harvest!

Since I posted the different Hibiscus that were popping over the summer…
We have obtained 3 Jurassic looking hostas that will have some huge lily-like flowers & 3 little plants… all 6 attract butterflies, but my front yard is like a “there is room here…” for plants right now
The company my husband & son work for had to removed plants from the property they are redoing & instead of throwing them away they asked if I liked flowers & the next thing I knew I had 6 more plants in the front yard
When I can get back out there, I will take a picture of the front yard now… a lot of the flowers have gone by & they have to be cut back down, but you’ll definitely see the plants I’m talking about

Ooh so blessed to have those gifted to you, I’m happy for you - flowers are hard for me, I will be focusing on more next season!!! 
Looking forward to the pics!

It actually looks like there may be 3 more blooms, smaller but 3 look like new buds since the larger ones passed. I’ll have to get out there tomorrow.

We are still having hot days but it’s cooling off at night.
I love these white hollyhocks, they were one of the first flowers to bloom after the bulbs were gone, and they are still blooming!
I love the bright yellow flowers which have beautiful golden energy. They have just recently bloomed! So definitely a Fall treasure.
It’s still pretty green here, some color is starting to appear in the vines on the fence though. My spider plants enjoy being outside during the summer, but I will bring them in soon. I still have some green tomatoes on the vine. And last but not least, beautiful pink pansies add a splash of color.
