Strawberry Moon

The moon two nights ago. I’m visiting at my daughter’s and don’t have my camera with me, so I had to make do with my Android phone. As always: Slava Ukraini! Слава Україні!

Mountain Laurel

The Mountain Laurel was glorious this year. Linked to Cee’s Flower of the Day As always: Slava Ukraini! Слава Україні!

A gallery of azaleas

There are only a few blooms left, but the azaleas were lovely until they were battered by the heavy rains. As always: Слава Україні !! Героям слава!! #StandForUkraine

Wildflowers

Very small wildflowers that were growing on my property. Unfortunately, they’re gone now after mowing in the front and some clean-up behind the house. “I’m going to give you a handful of wildflowers so, each petal that falls will remind you that the earth breathes, and the moon rises.” (Carolyn Riker)

Clematis in the Carolina Jessamine

I love to see this every year. The volunteer Clematis blooms at the same time as the Carolina Jessamine. This may be the last year I get to see this, however, as I plan to put the property on the market soon.
