What's in bloom/August 15

Today is Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day for August. And though it is a cloudy/rainy day, as July 15th was, I still headed out to take pictures of what is in bloom.

I'm so pleased that there are still many daylilies. You've seen a lot of them in the daily bowl of daylilies, so I won't post all of them here.






Someone gave Tom two geraniums, and I'm going to try and winter them over. I've heard of people doing this successfully, and I've got a room with south facing windows, so I'm hopeful.




Shelley's Bright Light Cosmos are still doing great.



The first tomatoes ripened this week! They are late this year.



The lovely Monkshood is in its glory.



The beautiful, beautiful cornflower.



The hydrangea tree blossoms are so delicate.



This goldenglow out by the barn is bright and cheerful.



Great, great onions!



I love the yellow goldenrod.



The first snow apples! Not too lovely to look at, but will make a great apple crisp today.
