My lily is taller than the fence this year. This one flower is down low by the Echinacea, such a pretty pairing ✨ #mygarden 🌹

I love how Verbascum Clementine looks all fancy yet otherworldly close-up

So sweet #roses

The Alnwick Rose in gorgeous morning light

Scepter'd Isle, my first standard. Another 2016 addition to my garden.

Let's do this! #laborday #catchingup

Gertrude Jekyll is one of the new English roses I added to my garden this year. It is gorgeous IRL

Look who is in town, touring with his band Dismantled. It's been too long since I last saw this guy! #oldfriends #kickassdrummer (at Old Nick's Pub)
