Summer Sweet Bushes

A few years ago I had a row of summer sweet bushes planted in my backyard. They come into bloom in August. The hummingbirds love these bushes as do the butterflies. They are just a joy to sit there and admire, because there's usually some adorable little critter visiting these bushes.

  1. Good afternoon, dear Lydia,
    beautiful bushes - are these "buddleyas" ? I am sure the perfume is lovely, if bees and butterflies like it.
    Wishing you a good start into the new week,
    Eva

  4. Hello Judy,
    Thank you. I plant a variety of heirloom tomatoes every summer. I love the mixtures of colors when they're in salads.
    Have a great day,
    Lydia
