Artemisia's Birthday & Thursday in the Garden

I am one years old today, so I gets to do our gardening post. After we tour the garden there are refreshments under the oak tree for us to enjoy. A Salmon Purr-day Cake, tuna, chicken, ham, cheese and egg dishes and plenty of fresh nip and milk for us to enjoy.

I likes the Hydrangeas. The soil is what gives them their color. These are planted close together but they are different colors ranging from light blue to purple. I am not sure which color I likes best.

These are planted close to the house and it is the first year they have done this well. They were here when Mommy & Daddy bought the house.

The Pineapple Sage is blooming. It has gotten very large.

Our neighbors Mimosa, we are hoping to get one next year for our yard.

Let's head down to the Butterfly Garden.

According to Grandma this is Queen Ann's Lace. Other people say it isn't but they can not tell us what it is.

This is a nice shady spot to relax.

This is also a good place to hunt for birds.

Although I doubt I'll catch many birds with Mommy hanging around taking my picture.

Stokes Aster & Yarrow. We love this bed, it is a vision in purple.

OK, let's PARTY!!!!!!

Be sure to stop by Jonesie's blog and visit her garden.

Happy 1st Birfday Atemesia! That is so great...

We love hydrangeas. Ours turn from light green ta white. They show up SO good in the evening.

We think the white flowers are not Queen Anne Lace, too. We have that and they are broader but with smaller flowers. We think yours look like carrots flowers. We have those too, and they look ezactly the same.

Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy 1st Birthday Artemisia and many, many, many mooooore!!! Your garden is beautiful and thank you for the wonderful party!!
Your TX furiends,

Your tour was wonderful, as always! Headbutts from your friends at the Casa!

Belated Birthday Wishes! You have such a beautiful garden! It is fun to see your garden photos and to learn about the types of plants that do well (or not) in your area. Since we live so much farther north, we don't have some of your plants here at all.
