| I don't know about you but the last few days I have been sneezing and my eyes are so itchy. It must be the late summer pollens that are getting to me. I was so stuffed up this morning I could hardly think. My ornamental grasses are blooming now. I have stuck in my mosiac the Calamagrostis Karl Foerster, The Eragrostis spectablis Purple Lovegrass and Pennisetum 'Shanendoah' with Perovoskia or Russian Sage, Veronica spikes, Blue Clips Campanula, Brown Eye Susans, and Painted daisy. The Fellow cellebrating his 90th birthday is my Dad. We had a family bbq yesterday to celebrate with him. He is still going strong. Hubby and I are hitching up the camper for a little R&R in the wilds of Northern Ontario. Catch up with you when we get back. Happy Gardening.

Love the photos – my Karl Foerster has never looked that good and I wish I was successful growing the Perovskia as I love it so much. So glad you had a wonderful celebration for your Dad's birthday. Have a great holiday!
