Wow! You have quite the vegetable garden! I have a nice bunch of annual poppies as well that all started with one volunteer years ago. I collect the seed for baking – yum! Enough scatters while harvesting the seed that I never have to worry about having poppies.

I love the look of your birthday garden. We got hit by hail in June, so some of my July bloomers look like someone took a bat to them… but some are out of control! I have sedum.. hens and chicks and dragons blood that is bloomning! That stuff NEVER blooms in Colorado… Gardening is an adventure!

That’s a nice idea to put the poppies in your veggie garden. They look great with the potato and corn crops My hubby found a volunteer poppy in our veggie garden this week.
I’m glad to see the penstemon growing in your garden. It’s something I want to try. Love that cultivar.
The smokebush is lovely too, and your new rose is such a beautiful shade of pink.
The sun is struggling out there today, but at least it’s shining. I’m hoping to feel a bit more warmth on my shoulders soon!
Happy Bloom Day, Kathy!

Wow, that’s a lot of potatoes. Glad to see your garden growing well in spite of the cool temps and rain. I’m kind of loving this summer: no water fretting – at least not yet.

What is Allegheny vine? I am not at all familiar with it.

Now I know why those little fabric potato growers were too small for you! You certainly have lovely blooms and I enjoyed the view of the Birthday Garden. .-= Leslie´s last blog ..GBBD July 2009 =-.

Oh, I dearly love my 'Dark Towers' Penstemon. Mine, of course, bloomed awhile back, but it is my new favorite. I love your new rose. Can't wait to see how it grows. Your area looks so refreshing and cool. I'd like to be there.~~Dee .-= Dee/reddirtramblings.com´s last blog ..Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day: Hurrah! It’s July! =-.
