OK, so, I know that only a few of these are actually volunteers,
but I just love their attitude....
that volunteer spirit...
that willingness to show up
that volunteer spirit...
that willingness to show up
year after year,
bursting from the ground,
bigger and brighter than ever before,asking for nothing in return.
It's like they just can't wait another minute,
and everyday, there is a new surprise
right outside my back door.
It won't be much longer until the hydrangeas
bloom into delicate snowballs. I love that the Irises take turns by color.
Sage, that I planted last year, is covered
in sweet purple blooms,and the bees can't get enough.
The thyme is covered in tiny white flowers.
Dill...
and cilantro...
and sunflowers
are popping up everywhere!And, I just love watching these delightful little pears
grow all Spring and Summer!
so those are called volunteer roses? are they prone to disease?
ReplyDeleteThe last 2 years I've let the dill, cilantro, and sunflowers go to seed before I cut them back, and Mom says that the new ones that come up all over from those seeds are called volunteers. I don't know what kind of roses these are, but I haven't had any problems with them.
