Haute Couture Naturelle





Look at that tiny color coordinated bug on the leaf...mother nature's delicate fashion statement at its best.

Spaghetti Sauce






All the lovely ingredients from our garden went into spaghetti sauce, making four batches. I froze some and we feasted on some. Happy Labor Day!

??


I still have not had time to identify this flower. Anyone? I got three tine plants from the Master Gardener's plant sale and now they are huge!! They are about four feet tall and filled with wonderful blossoms.

Nate's Sunflower Seed Offer

I saved quite a few seeds from the largest sunflower produced from Nate Kirkland's memorial sunflower seeds. Not many people took them in the office, so I have these left. If you knew Nate or are a member of the Dickinson College community, I will be happy to give you some. I think I will offer them again next spring when it is time for planting. The response will probably be better.

Bee Party





The sedum are the last plants blooming in my gardens and the bees are taking full advantage. There are quite a few different kind of bees on each blossom. Since the sedum were falling to the ground, I almost cut them all back last week. For the bees sake, I am glad I waited.

Peppers





It is amazing how prolific the peppers are! I wonder if the chilies will get late blight?
