Last year I had a yellow pumpkin as autumn decoration. Then I put it into compost. From that, seeds were scattered by random animals. A new one grew from the seeds and is threatening to take over my backyard. I've cut it back twice! Lol! Though, two pumpkins are a result. #Nature #gardening

🌱 #Nature!!!! I'm so excited to host a caterpillar on my butterfly weed plant (which is why I plant it). I grew it when I lived in Missouri, but this is the first time I have noticed a caterpillar on this. Yay! And, a different butterfly 🦋 on the caryopteris. #NurturingNature

Sunday afternoon, after unavoidably being outdoors in rain showers, Jasper was seen licking Daisy. Not sure what this means, if anything, but super cute! #Beagles #BeaglesOfBluesky #dogsofbluesky 😍❤️

🌱🦋 I'm not sure if you can tell but this was a black butterfly with yellow markings and very lacy looking. It was going to town in my phlox and then the butterfly bush. It was moving so fast...this was the best picture I got. 🦋❤️ #Nature #Butterflies #NurturingNature

🌱 My first tomato (can you hear the angels singing?! Lol!) And the very last daylily. I'm going to make a nice little salad with that tomato and the pepper from yesterday. Also, a monarch and a tiger swallowtail were floating and feasting in my yard #gardening #GardeningBluesky #bloomscrolling

These pictures don't do it justice. Emerging through the trees amid the smoky air, the sun was blood red. I tried to capture that stunning look with my phone camera, but this was the best I could do.

🌱 Hurray for hollyhocks! This variety is Nigra and I grew it the second year in my home. They're a biennial but I didn't do enough when it first bloomed to keep them going and they died out. So I planted new seeds last year and ta da! #garden #GardeningBluesky #bloomscrolling

🌱 The very first of what I hope are many (different varieties) of daylilies blooming. Also, this is NOT a tiger lily. When my tiger lilies bloom, I'll post. This is an orange daylily. 😉😊😁 #gardening #Garden #GardeningBluesky #bloomscrolling

Orange daylily...this is NOT a tiger lily. It is a daylily.

Mix of clouds and sun in the low 50s with a breeze. High in the upper 60s before heat moves in this weekend. I'm not ready for the 90s. SE PA. With a partial look at my backyard.
