So, I took some pictures of my garden here in Ontario. Some of the wonderful Black eyed susans I had gotten yesterday from an abandoned PMQ (almost abandoned as they were leaving), some of my purple petunia and also a few of the Rose Campion that I just love. I also answered Zoey's "garden trivia" question with the answer of Rose Campion. Still looking to see if I got it right or not. LOL I also had baby blue eyes in N.B. and just loved those too. Got them from my sister in Law's garden and was sad to leave them when I moved. We got ourselves a major rain and thunderstorm this afternoon. Took out the power for a couple of hours and I got a great shot of the rain pelting down and soaking my petunias. Here are those pics.

Here is a wonderful close up of my black eyed susans. I love these flowers...so bright and cheery


Here's the Rose Campion that I had in N.B. It was one of my favorite flowers for it's magenta colored bloom. It did have the feel of a lambs ear and when planted I thought that was what it was too.


Here's my Baby blue eyes that I had in my N.B. garden too. My sister in law donated a bunch to me. LOL


A close up of my purple petunia. Love them...They just keep so nice and hardly ever wilt or look bad.


Here's the down pour we had this afternoon here in Ontario. It poured so hard that I thought for sure my lawn was going to be a nice swimming hole for the girls. LOL

I love the Baby Blue eyes, and I also remember the rain storms from Ontario. Are those the same Black Eyed Susan from your previous post?

Crazygramma, those ones are a bunch I got from a neighbor that was moving. I hauled the other ones out that had died and put this new batch in. Thanks for the comment.
