Day 170: Liatris, Lavendar and Iris

My sisters and niece are coming to visit this weekend so we are hustling to get the house and yard in tip top shape.  We trimmed the hedge and bushes, weeded, vacuumed, dusted and cleaned.  Whew! Busy day.

Apparently our gardens are not only eye candy but also candy for the deer.  The lilies are especially delicious and the deer have chomped off many buds.  We sprayed again hoping to deter them, but they are determined.  Other delights are blooming now;  aromatic lavender, sparkling evening primrose and lacy hydrangea.  Very soon, the huge white blossoms of angel's trumpet, also known as moon flowers, will open in the evening.  They have reseeded and I have dozens of babies to give away.
