http://fairegarden.blogspot.com/2008/07/interesting-insects.html
Monday, July 7, 2008. We have been getting some visitors in the garden. Most of them can even fly in to have a look around. Some even let us get close enough to snap a photo. What colorful eyes he/she has. Maybe it was thought that the blue chair on the deck was water? This larger one is another story. Many attempts were made to get close enough to macro, but this is the best that could be done, using the zoom. Pretty interesting, don't you agree? Ah, staying put if not holding still on the.

Faire Garden: July 2008
http://fairegarden.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 21, 2008. It is early morning and we are going out the back door to have a walkabout the garden, as we try and do every single day. We have had some rain recently so says the dragonfly's flagon. Good deal. That means the plants should be pert and perky. Off we go! On the tomatoes, with the arborvitae behind, someone has been a busy spider. You have created a vision of beauty Ms. Arachnid. Very geometrical. Down in the area we call the flat garden where the old gravel driveway of the house ne...

Faire Garden: Butterfly Bush Standards
http://fairegarden.blogspot.com/2008/07/butterfly-bush-standards.html
Thursday, July 10, 2008. A summertime delight of the Faire Garden is the butterfly bush,. Although considered an invasive in some areas, we have not found them to be difficult to control. The height, up to ten feet unpruned, adds great vertical interest to the shrub border. But we prefer to grow them as standards, removing the lower limbs and giving the one trunk a strong metal stake for support of the large trusses of small flowers. A bumblebee is enjoying. Red blooms. We are growing. Is a bit of a misn...
