I have set an informal tea table today by my Black-eyed Susans and will be joining Bernideen for Tea in the Garden on Saturday.
I love the beauty of sunflowers, the bright colors of birds and blooms and the sound of water trickling in the pond. This week we have had some cooler nights and it was wonderful to have the windows open and to breathe in the fresh air.

The plate and napkin bloom with vibrant sunflowers perfect for a summer's day. Our mug is from Lang in the Floral Bounty pattern by artist Ellen Stouffer.
Inspired by a traditional bee skep this Longaberger Bee Hive Basket is one of my favorites. It sits on a table in my sunroom where the pewter honeybee tie-ons and carved bee-topped knob can be admired.

Your Longaberger Beehive is very cool! Love your little table setting! Your flowers look great! My black eyed susans are blooming nicely right now and the russian sage- just about the end of the perennials. My grasses are starting to get their blooms...
I just planted black-eyed susans under my breakfast nook window. Can't wait til they look like yours. The bee hive is so sweet. Such a nice setting.
Another beautiful view of your gardens! Love your Black-eyed Susans. Ours have past their peak period and on the way out already ... so sad!
As always it's just beautiful!! Your Black Eyed Susans are fabulous. I love those as well.
Pretty setting. Love that beehive basket-that is so cute. I've never seen one.
