I think I have uploaded the most photos for one posting in a looooonnnngggg time. Today is the 15th and that means Garden Blogger Bloom Day. Carol hosts this every month --be sure to go over to her
blog, MayDreamsGardens and say hi.
I want to start my walk with a great sighting from the other night. We had a Luna Moth flutter down and land on the driveway, I offered a stick for her to walk on and carried her to a nearby bush to keep her safe.
And now on with the garden!! These are in order from the front door, around the house and back to the front. I will just caption the photos, and you can walk through at your own pace.
