The weatherman has promised us a week of sunny summer weather. It is perfect weather for some 'green' tea in the garden.
Now that we have had our tea let's take a stroll around the garden.
We can start at the road for now. There are four Limelight hydrangea along the fence just coming into bloom.
There is also phlox, daylilies,sedum ,clematis,monkshood, asters etc.
The tall trees gives a lot of shade on these beds and in the winter they do get some road salt so the plants have to be hardy.
We can finish our tour of the garden another day. I am having company so I am off to get ready for lunch in the terrace on this perfect summer day.
Have a good day!

As always beautiful, Carolyn. Your teapots and teacups, linens, flowers, wicker, it's all perfect. I can feel the ambiance of lingering there with a book and a pot of tea, receiving all the blessings of nature that God has given us...just wonderful.
