The Little Garden Survives/Shadowshot Sunday

For more shadowshots from around the world go

A little jaded and worse for wear but still there............

in spite of taxis and garbage and everything else........

Luis Lujan's garden (25th Street and 9th Avenue) had a pretty rough week.
It was pretty much dug up when they redid the concrete surround.
But with care and attention it has rebounded.

my main blog is now here

The Magic Garden: Midsummer

When I lived on Long Island, my closest gardening

 chum was Lori who lives there still in the Jarvis House.

(This is one of the barns.)

So whenever we go to Long Island, we visit and delight in it.

A very small, timid rabbit.

Day lilies beneath the bird feeders.

So girlie and ruffled and pink.

With the  cool blues of hydrangea and hosta in contrast.

And more and more of the same.....

The shapes of the leaves........

Shasta daisies are as gleamingly white

 and cheerful as a toothpaste commercial.

This is a pale yellow clivia.

You are much more likely to see orange ones.
