Phlox and Tulips, Tulips and Phlox

Waiting on a phone call,  I grabbed the camera and stepped out for a moment.

From the driveway leading into the back yard you are greeted by some creeping phlox and a mile marker.




















Two or three more paces are these enormous tulips. The big ones are 30 inches tall!




















A closer look reveals a thin red edging, subtle yet striking.





















Then the phone rang and I had to run out. I'm waiting for rain so I can have softer earth for tomorrow's excavation.


Until next time, Keep Digging & Eat Well!
