More flowers from my Garden in Thurston

I promised more pictures of my flowers, so I guess I have to deliver. The Willamette Valley is one of the finest places in the world to grow things. I have a lot of plants that grow even without my help. Those, I consider weeds. My wife and I had a disagreement as to what constituted a weed. I said if it grew where it wasn't planted, it was a weed. She said it if bloomed, it was a flower.

My easy win was to point out the poor dandylion. It blooms, but it is always a weed. I think the only thing it is good for is wine. LOL Well, here are the latest floral examples:

Glads

fuchsia treeHoney Bee heaven

mum

tiger lily

black eyed susans

I will add more flowers later. I just want to stress that flowers grow here, abundantly.
