With strict instructions not to move the rocks lest the stream overflow its banks and the pond drains dry, the princess and her minions enjoy playing in the stream of the garden pond. It's also a hit with many a bird who totally ignore the bird bath and like to bathe in the stream instead.
That mulched patch in the upper left was full of rudbeckia last year. Full! I may have mulched too heavily in the spring. SO SAD. At least the cleome, impatiens, astilbe, peppermint spirea, and weeds are doing just fine.

Thank you for stopping by to read Cranberry Morning. Comments are closed today because I really have no business being at the computer. Instead, I'll be cleaning house and making food for the family reunion which starts tonight!
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
