White Out

 I wish I had a ga-zillion of these!  They are so beautiful.  Before we moved to Harlan six years ago, I don't remember seeing Rose of Sharon (I'm sure I did--just don't remember).  But here, they are EVERYwhere.  I dug up three extras from an alleyway a couple of years ago.  Wish I'd helped myself to more.
 
The white on this particular hosta is SO attractive.
I didn't venture out to photograph the white roses.  The grass is very wet from recent rains.
I notice the weeds are growing like crazy, too!

  1. A gazillion of those beauties would be a sight folks would come from far and wide to see. Lovely!

  2. That is a beautiful rose of sharon and the hosta blooms are huge. Grow those for the flowers instead of the leaves.

  6. I have enjoyed my walk through your garden. Everything is beautiful. I like the crib on the back porch. I planted a couple of hostas by our front porch under the shade tree and this spring they bloomed. One of my favorite garden plants.
