Happy Summer Solstice!


It is officially summer and a truly gorgeous day here in Brevard! My friend Claire, who previously owned 'The Extended Garden' up the road, came by and bought one of my super-coolest-plants-in-the-nursery-at-this-moment: Maple Leaf Hibiscus... What can I say, she's got a good eye!

I'm celebrating the first day of summer with a photo tour of the Zinnia in the garden... Zinnia are one of my favorites and they are planted all along the fence of the nursery! YAY! Bouquets are slowly invading the homes of those I love...



This picture is a bit washed out - the variety is called "green envy" and it is a very pale limey green - looks amazing as an accent in a bouquet with the pinks and reds.... mmmm....
