A little texture for another TEXTURE TUESDAY!
Some natural textures on the colorful coleus leaves…
contrasted with some more texture in the bricks as a fun background.

Celebrating another MUGSHOT MONDAY with a collection of mugs that have become homes to an adorable little succulent garden. They’ve even been drilled through the bottoms for proper drainage! Such a great idea Rosene!

More colors. More textures. More raindrops.

Well, the rain is here… and it looks like it’s sticking around for the next few days! At least the lilies on our street are loving it. There’s a condo building 1/2 a block away that has these amazing & fragrant lilies in their garden every year! Even more beautiful with the raindrops lingering on each of the petals.

One of my all-time favorite flowers… the Black-Eyed Susan!
It always makes me smile. I know it’s really just a glorified weed that seems to grow everywhere! And yet somehow, this is the one plant that evades me! Never growing in my garden no matter how many time I try!!! C’mon already…

Beautiful white “snowball” hydrangeas popping up all over the neighborhood. So much fun to see these wonderful floral spheres of tiny blossoms when they begin to bloom each year.

Some of the coolest flowers EVER have once again decided to pop-up & start blooming in my garden. These “Bears Britches” have such great “towers” of purple flowers… and the dark green leaves have such great shapes too! Always a treat when these favorites make their annual appearance!

Not quite sure what these are… but they’re beautiful in my neighbor’s garden across the street. Spiky small clusters of orange & dark green leaves. I’m hoping that they decide to “migrate” into my garden too!!!

Crazy cool & colorful caladium leaves… when texture, color & pattern collide in Nature!… with a few raindrops!!!

Rainy day.
Dripping on textures.
Creating puddles on hosta leaves.
