Out on the back deck this morning as the sun rose up behind the trees my beautiful cat Bella and I discovered that our Cosmos Flowers had finally opened ..to the joy of a wonderful day ...
I planted the seeds for these Cosmos Flowers just 7 weeks ago and they are at least 3 feet high ..such a joy to watch them germinate within 5 days and grow
Today I was awarded with the golden yellow and the deep orange of these lovely flowers ...each one of them the colors of the sun

Equally to our delight the woody twig clippings I cut from our Rose of Sharon tree just after the last frost this Spring have welcomed the day with three lovely big purple flowers now a small tree of their own ....so easy to propagate and yet they give you so much ..these will flower all day, every day till the first frost of the Winter
These are three twigs that have rooted but as I am an impatient gardener ..I will leave these three together to make one large tree and will repot them in to a larger pot in the fall ...
Loved not just by us but by Humming Birds, Honey Bees & Butterflies ....such a showy tree or some like to call them bushes

Sweet Toby want's to say ' Good Morning ' too ...much to Bella's disgust ...He always steals her limelight !!
Below is the Rose of Sharon I took these three cutting from ...I have grown many new trees from this one original ..that was also a small twig cutting from my Husband's Childhood Home garden
Have a wonderful start to your day ...look around at your surroundings and treat yourself at least once today !
