Early on a September morning...

The shadowed trees waking from their requisite slumber


The sun's glorious rays stretch forth in radiant jubilation!

Another day has dawned!

White Echinacea glows in the dawns early light.


Persistent lingering Foxglove, too, rises from her repose.


Enjoying the refreshing coolness of the morning.
 

Coveting a kiss from the sun!


Sweet Peas extolling praise and adoration with their beauty and sweet perfumed offerings.
 
Impatiens hanging near a vintage scale, weighing the remaining days of summer.
 
Common Tansy and Russian Sage...
 


bow and curtsy before the Summer King on the carpet of sun parched grass.
  
Fameuse (Snow Apple) reflecting the early morning Majesty!


Fruit of the vine beginning to ripen...

with promised hope.



Rouge Vif D'Etampes (Cinderella) Pumpkin and...


Acorn Squash ~ their time is not yet come ~ but soon!
  



Sunflowers planted by the birds...




Blooming where they are planted
and always
keeping their faces focused on the Sun!

Magnificent pumpkins! I love the tansy too, I need to get more- we always paired it with lavender. Very nice garden.

What wonderful morning beauty!

Millie said...

I would enjoy eating those flowers (except the foxglove because it is poisonous). They look very yummy.
