What a beautiful way to start the morning Carol. I love the Gingers, and how nice of the Swallowtail to stop by and pose for you.


Good morning, Jan, and thank you! The swallowtail was not overly shy which surprised me. Anytime a butterfly will hang around is a good time!

Thank you. I've been fortunate this year. The growing part has been pretty easy. We didn't freeze last winter so less new planting and we have had a reasonable amount of rain. The only bad has been the heat!

Yesterday morning I made my usual early morning trip to the back yard to feed the birds and check on the latest flowers to open. In the distant corner dedicated to Gingers, I encountered a garden angel. Her pristine beauty immediately compelled me to fetch a camera. She was glowing in the early light.

The angel, my first white ginger blossom for this season, led me to photograph some of the other Gingers in the immediate area. After that, on my way back inside, I encountered a sunny buttercup and also a wild red Morning Glory (a weed). As if these weren't enough, a large, beautiful Tiger Swallowtail showed up to nectar and pose as well. What a great start to the day!

OK - wildflower! This is actually a very small flower, not big like most Morning Glories. It is a vine that goes all over other plants and I used to pull them up until I saw one with a flower. Now I keep a lot of them.

Thank you! It was nice to go out early before the sun starts beating down. Then I had something to work on inside with air conditioning!
