Blooming May

 

I've carved out a new corner for painting.

 

 

It started as a sketch for a larger painting, to try out different colors.

But I just kept going and now its nearly done.

 

 

 

(I'm trying to figure out where to add a hedgehog.)

 

 

So mulling, I took a trip through the garden. My pentstemon have never bloomed like this~

 

 

The catmint is soft and smells almost minty. I guess that's why its named catmint.)

 

 

 

The Mexican sage is growing about an inch a day, I think it looks like giant lavender

 What's May without Petunias?

 The Cecile bruenner rose has taken over the stairway

 

I've got new clay things made, and I was so over the lunar scape to buy this vintage wallpaper. Almost enough for a wing wall somewhere. I wish I could make a dress out of it!

 

 

This little corner of the garden is special, because almost everything is a volunteer,

The lemon balm, little ground cranesbill and even the daisy, just popped up.

Only the geranium is planted, an anniversary gift from the Mr.

 

 

After all that mulling, I still can't decide where to put the Hedgehog, she must be in the house, baking a strawberry pie.
