This time it's the Astilbes turn -

We are starting to get a few hotter days thrown into the mix; sunny with a high of 87.

The Astilbes have decided it's their turn to get all the attention, and I think it's fair to say, they deserve it. The Astilbes to the left are on the north side of the house in FB #5. There are a total of 7 in this bed.

The Astibles to the right are in the Forest Flower Bed (FFB), and are in the shade 70% of the time. There are a total of 12 in this bed. That means I have 19 Astibles to deadhead in about 30 days. Hey, do I know how to have fun or what?

You can barely see the blue hydrangeas in bloom in the back. After looking at this picture, I can't imagine why I wanted pink hydranges!
