My Garden, Showing Off

I thought today should just be a little showing off,

a little preening.

One of my climbers,

stretching to be seen.

A late season David Austen Rose hiding behind

white phlox.

The combination of scents

is intoxicating.

One of my all-time favorite combinations,

black-eyed Susans and

Russian sage.

Opposites do attract!

And the lavender and feverfew in a hopeless tangle

that I never could have dreamed up.

If I looked this lovely with so little effort,

I think I might preen a little too!
