🪷Today’s Garden post. This is a Buddha statue that I picked up at a garage sale and painted gold. I then planted Native Tennessee Irises, a dark-cherry blooming Sedum, and white Coneflowers. The hot pink blooming ground cover in front of the Irises is creeping Moss Phlox. #gardeningfeed 🌱

Today’s gardening post. This is my very healthy Russian Sage(Perovskia atriplicifolia). If you’re looking for a plant that can take heat and drought, look no further. It can grow to be 3–5 ft tall and 3-5 ft wide. They do self-seed and spread but they are easy to control. #gardeningfeed 🌱🌼🐝

🌱Today’s gardening post. Say hello to one of the hummingbirds that visits me every year. I call her Lola.

🌸 Lola is accustomed to me so she doesn’t fly away when I approach her while she’s feeding on the flowers in my hanging basket. (Apparently, Hummers can recognize human faces.)❤️

🌱Today’s gardening post is a view of my beloved Vitex tree. I have three of these babies. It resembles an oversized Butterfly Bush. They are super drought tolerant and always loaded with bees and butterflies. Check out this video, too! 🌸🌱

So I found the clip of Smoky climbing a tree at the end of my driveway. There is a berry vine in that tree that he’s after for a snack. We think Smoky is a juvenile male - possibly one of Sugar’s cubs from one or two years ago. (Pic of Sugar in comment for comparison.) #gardeningfeed #garden #bears
