Hello everyone,
I hope you are all doing well.
I am sorry that time got from
me once again and it has been a month
since I posted .
Summer always seems to go
so quickly and there is so much
to do.
We have had very dry June which
was great for cottage/beach days
but not so much for gardens and
crops but we did get a couple of
rainy days lately .
Anyway ,peony season is here
and I have enjoyed picking
bouquets for indoors.
A little bouquet at Eventide Cottage.
These peonies are Sarah Bernhart and
it will always be one of my favorites.
A shot from last year of Do Tell
peonies....another favorite.
I also love aqua and pink together.
Tea time
I have lots more photos to share when
time allows.
This week we have family staying at
Eventide Cottage which is always fun.
I guess I should mention that to those
of you who expressed an interest in
staying at Eventide Cottage this summer
it will still be available if travel is allowed.
Because of covid 19 it was not listed on
Air B&B as planned but hopefully more
of the country will be able to safely open
up soon. As of last Friday we can travel to
other Atlantic provinces but not the rest
of Canada yet. The border between Canada
and the US will likely remain closed for awhile.
So, to all of you who expressed an interest in
renting Eventide Cottage hopefully someday soon!
I hope things are going well in your area and
you all remain safe.
Take care,
Carolyn
Your flowers are exquisite! Hopefully in the future when we can corral Covid we'll be able to see Eventide. Enjoy your summer and stay safe!
ReplyDeleteHi Sandi,
ReplyDeleteI hope that will happen soon as I look forward to meeting you!
Stay safe,
Carolyn
No one does garden flowers like you do, dear Carolyn. Your peonies are exquisite! I am afraid I need to transplant mine - our trees have grown so high that now my peony is just not getting enough sun. Each year I have less and less blooms - and with our wacky weather I got 4 puny blooms. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about Covid and how it is affecting your business. The whole thing makes me so sad.
May you continue to stay safe and healthy - and I am praying for this to pass soon.
Hugs.
Hi Michele,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your lovely comment. Hopefully, covid will pass soon and I hope the economy will recover soon as well.
Hope you stay safe and healthy as well.
Take care,
Carolyn
Oh so pretty
ReplyDeleteOh beautiful pictures Carolyn!! I love your garden! I have Sarah Bernhardt peony in my garden too and a Lady Alex and the generous bees helped to produced a pretty cross of pink and creamy white which I named "Gentle Ellie" after my granddaughter. Gardening has been my safe haven during all this World turmoil. Stay safe! We are still thinking about Eventide Cottage.
ReplyDeleteYour peonies are gorgeous, such a lovely soft shade of pink. I am missing my peonies as they went by last week: the difference between Maine and PEI. Take lots and lots of pictures.
ReplyDeleteYour peonies are just wonderful! I have two plants but I usually only get one bloom each year! What is the secret for having them bloom? Mine may not have enough sun as they are shaded quite abit. Maybe you could do a blog post on your peony secrets! Mine are pink too.. or should I say "my one blossom each year" is pink! Some bug loves the leaves and chews them to pieces too. So sad. I can live through YOUR peonies though! I think my new fave combination is now aqua and pink..... was pink and green but the aqua is so soothing.
ReplyDeleteYour peonies are wonderful!!!!!! kiss Lory
