    Beautiful shots of the flowers, I've never seen a morning glory quite like yours.
    Your garden helpers are very sweet.

    The MG is 'Carnevale di Venezia' it has been slow starting, but my soil is not the very best. My garden helpers can sometime be a pain in the garden, but they are sweethearts.

    Charity is 12 years old and hasn't slowed down a bit. We found her at the church we used to go to and took her home. She was badly abused. The preacher's wife found her red brother that afternoon and took him to her vet to be placed in a home. If we had seen both of them I guess we would have had two dogs.

    I don't know which of your flowers to pick as a favourite but your glads certainly would be way up near the top of the list. They are such atately flowers and come in so many attractive colours these days. Charity and Kittles look good in the garden too!! ;)

    Sharon, seeds from this fall will do. Don't short yourself for me, okay! I do like morning glories though. Maybe you can tell from my pictures. I like glads too. I had them in my bouquet when I got married. white glads and red roses. dooley
