Morning Coffee on the Front Porch

Barb Rosen
by Barb Rosen
One of my favorite "rooms" in our home is outside, on our front porch! Each morning I take a cup of coffee out to the porch swing to watch the birds and see what's blooming. What a perfect way to start the day, with Nature's beauty!

The scene from my porch swing on an August morning.
Crepe Myrtle Blooms add a pop of color in the summer garden.
Tiny wren babies waiting for breakfast.
Impatiens Balfourii ~ Poor Man's Orchid self sows throughout my flowerbeds.
Black-Eyed Susans for the Goldfinches and late summer color.
Hen & Chicks ~ sturdy, drought resistant plants for containers or groundcover plantings.
Annual Cleome ~ self sows for an old-fashioned cottage garden look!
Annual Cosmos ~ easy to grow cottage garden flower
Coneflowers attract pollinators to the garden.
