I love that your house is purple. When we started looking at colors to paint the dome, I suggested periwinkle, and Brian didn't go for that. Humph. I think it's pretty. :)

Those are my favtorite hostas! Much better than the 'green only' variety.

I have a horrible black thumb, EXCEPT for marigolds, and the hostas were here when we arrived!

The flowers look great, we are new to gardening and flowers, there is so much to learn! The hosta's go perfectly with your house.

Picture perfect! Looks like it's right out of a great kids' book or a cool dream. Love the color.

Your hostas! I never realized that they bloom so abundantly pretty. Here they almost always only have leaves and only one or two flowers. So if they'd grow like this here too I'd think about planting them too! :-)

It's so hard to believe it is mid summer already! CrAzY, right? Your garden is growing so nice. Very pretty.
