These beauties are gracing our yard in August.
The strawberry plants have sent out runners. I thought the fruit was done for the season. But the leaves are lush, and a few more flowers are blooming. Today I even found four more ripe berries!
These pansies are technically volunteers (weeds!) that are creeping through the bark on the ground in the front yard. But I like them, so have been fertilizing them and encouraging them to grow.
The mum plant I bought last September decided to stick around all year. The plant has doubled in size. This is the first little bud to open.
The morning glories are doing well. Nearly the entire back fence is covered in the vines. The flowers are starting to emerge - in three colorways:
Alongside the driveway, our neighbor's large hibiscus bush is in full bloom. So pretty. Reminds me of where I grew up in southern California.
This is a drop in the bucket of the colorful vegetation in Eugene at this time of year. Wait until you see the flowers I spotted on my walk. Gorgeous.
