In The Pink



Friday morning, when I woke up and made a pot of coffee and went for my morning walk in the garden, I half expected to see a disaster in the garden after we had been gone for 3 weeks.  However, it's as if the entire garden had changed it's color palette from mid summer white and yellow to late summer pink.  The hardy hibiscus and flox and hydrangea and coneflower all bloomed simultaneously and it was  a sea of pink.  The smoke bushes are also purple and had grown 2 feet in the same time period.  The lawn needed mowing and the weeds in the mulch are horrendous but the garden was In The Pink.
