Round Midnight Lily
my new favorite beauty!

I have not been in the garden much this year. Too many other commitments.
I planted so many new things over the last two years that a season of seeing what is actually working is probably a good thing.
It was such a tough winter that a lot lot my plantings had fewer blooms - at least that is what I am chalking it up to!
Other than moving a few hostas and adding some wildflower seeds I had no big garden event this year! But, this past weekend we did finally make something we had been talking about for a year.
A sun sail shade for our tiny back deck.
Although the sun sail shade is not "technically" an "in" the garden project - it is, however, a "for" the garden project. And yes, technically, I was inside more than outside while constructing it.
But..... I am going to consider it a garden related activity and post it here.
Besides the fact that I can't believe we did it at all!
And thank you to Tim for keeping my will in the game!

Most of the early summer blooms are gone but the hydrangeas just keep being prolific and beautiful. And those hardy summer flowers give color continually - love them. Thank you shasta daisy, lianthus, black eyed susans, and cone flowers!
I am already thinking about next summer .......
what shall I plant?
