The Stillroom

Patio days. I love having a patio that is open to the sun and sky. A border of forsythia on the west side provides beautiful blooms in the spring and a “fence” along the property line (in another picture from another post). The back forty is a fragrant field and habitat. The east patio planters have culinary lemon grass and is a perfect privacy privacy screen that is always in motion from the summer breezes. How do you like the vintage pensive elf? Soon he will be tucked away among some mini sunflowers! The basil plant will be repotted but right now it is burning some incense to keep the bees away to which they seem to be wasps. The bird bath has a solar fountain that is just enough water movement without the hassle of having a bigger fountain. Been there, done that! It needed to be scrubbed too often so this is a perfect “downsize”! Today is the first morning I have a minute to enjoy the morning sun, the sweet air and play in the dirt a little. Now to try and post some pictures.🤓
