Hemerocallis 'Pink Rocks'


Pink Rocks is a late bloomer that can extend your daylily season.

I must plant it. It seems I'm always in the process of buying new things to add to the garden. This Hydrangea macrophylla 'Queeen of Pearls' is still waiting its turn. I have it with my other pot plants. It will not miss getting watered and be OK. 


All America and Blotanical are blooming with purple coneflowers. I saw these blooming by the roadside on our weekly visit to the seafood buffet at a local state park inn. 




Let's take a break from the garden chores with a cool pink lemonade.

Echinacea purpurea/Purple Coneflower


are beginning to bloom along with cleome.


Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania


We were talking about the steamed seafood we had on the coast. And, pow! We had a super supper served with melted butter and Baringer White Zinfandel.


In a large boiler with a lid, put small potatoes, an onion, corn on cob, sausage links, your favorite shellfish combo, add a cup of water, cook on medium heat for 20 minutes and, voila! steamed seafood feast.
