Well, this challenge couldn’t have been any easier and now I get to document what I did today. As I stated in my earlier post, I spent the day in my yard planting…
…some lavender for a pop of color and because it’s hearty in full sun (I love this variety for its wild little hairs on top of its head)…
…some azaleas (boring photograph because they’re not in bloom) and then I found this plant that I was not familiar with ~ Platinum Wallaby Mulla Mulla ~ I love it just for the name but it also has a beautiful soft texture to it.
I think I’ll head over to Santa Cruz tomorrow to try to find some decorative statuary to complete the look in my front yard. Enjoy your weekend. 🙂

Lots of productivity documented with this challenge. Beautiful flowers you planted today.
Thank you, yes it was a very productive day ~ it felt good to get that done.
You two have a great weekend as well, Susan.
Thanks, Sid. You as well…hope you get to that movie. 😉
Gorgeous pictures for “today”! I love the purples too. Everything in my garden is pink and I could us a little purple to mix things up! 🙂
Thank you. I have a lot of mixed colors but I do think the purple is my favorite.
Beautiful Photos:)
Thanks Renee. It was hot out there today, I think a trip to the beach is in order tomorrow. 🙂
I love that variety of lavender, too, Spanish lavender I think. It always reminds me of beautiful purple bumblebees. Your pictures are gorgeous!
Thank you, Elisa.
That Wallaby Mulla Mulla (you’re right, what a name!)…does it open and bloom? Or is that the actual flower? It’s gorgeous, never seen one like it. Beautiful!
I don’t know yet about the blooming part since this is the first time I’ve even seen it, but I’m thinking that the little purple color is the bloom so I think this is it, but I’ll let you know if it’s otherwise.
great.
Beautiful shots of the flowers.
Thank you, Colline.
Such beautiful shots and a productive day to boot!
Thanks, I’m trying to get myself out there again to pull some weeds but somehow it’s not sounding too appealing. 🙂
