Oh Canada, True North Strong and Free
Tomorrow, July 1st is CANADA DAY so in it’s honour, a red teapot filled with red and white….. and our Maple Leaf Flag of course.
Maltese Cross, Scarlet Lightning, Lychnis chalcedonica, Peach leaf Bellflower, Campanula persicaria, Sweet William Dianthus barbatus, Zonal Geranium Perlagonium and Queen Anne’s Lace, Ammi majus
Earlier last week I thought I was stumped for flowers. There seemed to be a lull in the garden and flowers were either just over or just beginning. However ,when I went out to glean a few blooms, picking the odd one of this and a bit of that I ended up with a cheerful splash of summer.
In another thrift store vase are; Yellow Loostrife, Lysimachia punctata, Peach Leaf Bellflower, Campanula persicifolia, the last of the Ranunculus and Anemone, Lady’s Mantle, Alchemilla mollis, Poppies Papaver or Oreomecon nudicaulis and a sprig of Feverfew, Tanacetum parthenium
Wishing everyone a Happy Canada Day, to think of us if not Canadian but to celebrate if you are. Elbows Up!
