some interesting events in my garden

Nature and man made flowers hard to distinguish in this year curiosities in my garden.

I never did this mixing, but

the difficulties giving by the weather

made me to help with silk flowers.

In a little crack on the driveway

perhaps from a windblown seed

grew a little pine tree baby.

I got it into a pot and

being so grateful

grew a lot in a year!

Miracle in my garden.

I did not plant this flower, which is a petunia

with velvety dark purple color.
I used to water the pot of silk flowers

like they were real.

And one day it became real as this petunia

from a dormant seed emerged

between the silk flowers!
May be 2 years ago there were petunias in this pot

but through brutal cold winter some seeds

remained alive.

Amazing.

For some unknown reason

this year

my old oak trees

brought more acorns than ever before

The size is big

like they were hazelnuts




The amount is just bushel after bushel
cleaning them constantly
a never ending work
this year.
No need to feed squirrels.
Nature provides :)
