My friend @julie_abnet posted a childhood photo and I thought, hmm, that dress looks familiar.

It’s kind of an in-between week for #WhatsInMyGardenWednesday today. The drumstick alliums haven’t bloomed yet, and the first flush of roses is petering out. Even the horseradish is wilting. But hey, there’s wee lavender (no really, the variety is called Wee One), and volunteer cilantro and marigolds. The (invasive) bush honeysuckle will come out someday but it really doesn’t creep much in this climate and the berries are pretty. Unfortunately, we’re in the process of taking out the rose of Sharon (hibiscus). The neighbor’s slowly falling juniper has crushed the higher branches, and it’s frankly a Japanese beetle magnet. A little sad to see it go, but I’ll save a lot of time every morning usually spent flicking dozens of 🪲🪲🪲 into soapy water.

Using the alcohol ink technique I learned from @hellomaniology (plus a vibrating star stamp), this pink & yellow day-glo manicure has strong ’80s beach vibes. #JustAnotherManiMonday

I missed #WhatsInMyGardenWednesday by a day, but that Prince of Orange poppy bloom didn’t last a week anyway. It’s the first year for the xeriscaped portion of the yard, and those plants need a season to get settled.

Throwback to Saint Malo, friends, and the first day of the-flu-that-turned-out-to-be-Covid.

This week’s episode of #WhatsInMyGardenWednesday, featuring my first gorgeous blooms of #DameDeCoeurIris, the #GlobemasterAllium settling into their new spot, and assorted roses doing rosy things.

Bon nuit et au revoir, Paris. I’m sorry I only had a handful of (mostly) flu-free hours with you, but we made the most of it. #StillSickButLessSick
