Not quite as pretty as the morning when I took the photo to paint Sunrise over the Kaweah River.
T (my walking partner) and I see these bunnies almost every morning. We don’t understand how they survive.
Blue dick and common madia are still going strong.
It was a morning to spend in the yard. If I wasn’t such a lenient boss, I’d have to fire myself. I seem to be semi-retired these days.
It is so interesting that there is one white iris on each side of the path, and they stand above the others. I planted these bulbs in autumn of 2023 and have no memory of arranging them in any particular order.
This segment of the yard is all pinky-purply. It has one purple iris, lots of freeway daisies, several redbud trees, some lavender and some lilac. Guess you have to be here to see it all in bloom at once.
Just a thought about color for you: there are 3 plants named for various shades of purple.
- Lilac
- Lavender
- Violet

This is absolutely gorgeous. I can’t get over how picturesque the area where you live is!
Heh-heh, Elisabeth, it is positively horrid here in August, so I guess we need the picturesqueness now to balance it out. Besides, there is plenty of ugly. I just don’t take photos of that stuff!
I love the pillars in your yard.
Thank you, Gnat! Me too and I am so thankful to have a husband who not only doesn’t object to my somewhat unorthodox ideas, but helps me make them happen!
So much beauty AND bunnies! Who could ask for more?
I just can’t believe those little guys survive. Don’t their people put them in a hutch at night? Some of my cats haven’t survived even during the daytime (we put them away each night except for when one decides to have a campout.)
