Shay NOLA: Dinner: Steak with roasted fingerling potatoes. Dressing made with roasted tomatoes, garlic and bell peppers… topped with pistachios.
Shay NOLA: A delicate flower of the classic #hosta #lancifolia. It almost seems as if it's floating. I'm getting all my flower pics in while I can. Autumn is almost here! #hostalove #hostaholic #photowalk #inmygarden #macrogardener with my #sonynex5

Shay NOLA: Dinner: #Taiwanese #threecupchicken with #choysum and #jasminerice cooked down in coconut milk. The #coconutmilk was more watered down than the last time I tried this, so the flavor wasn't very strong. Next time I think I'll go for a thicker cream. #blue

Shay NOLA: Dark Beauty... First time seeing it bloom! #epimedium #epimediagroup #hosta #companionplants #inmygarden
Shay NOLA: #lilytoad #inmygarden #hosta #companionplants
Shay NOLA: And one would think this is just a picture of a #flower... Look at the red #petioles on this 1st year #hosta Harry Van de Laar! #inmygarden
Shay NOLA: Still seeing a few #hosta #flowers popping up late in the season. This beautiful flower is from H. Island Breeze... A relatively small hosta with a gold leaf, edged in green with my favorite red petioles. Happy that it can take a bit of sun. #photowalk #i
Shay NOLA: First #monarch #inmygarden this year!
Shay NOLA: Japanese Anemone... Such a beautiful plant. I love when it grows in a mound and then these beautiful flower scapes shoot out of the top. It spreads quickly, too… Almost too quickly. I have to yank quite a bit out so it doesn't overtake my peonies and blee
Shay NOLA: Already a beautiful, soft color but decided to exaggerate the softness a bit. So #dreamy! #limelighthydrangea #inmygarden
Shay NOLA: Dinner: Chicken and #eggplant #frommygarden in a #tikkamasala sauce, served over #jasminerice. #😋🍴
Shay NOLA: More #Sedum... I believe this is Autumn Joy. Such an interesting plant. It's gorgeous and hasn't even bloomed!
Shay NOLA: I just love #sedum. Such an interesting looking plant and so many varieties.
Shay NOLA: These #cicada skins are everywhere! There are at least eight on this one trunk. These are the annual cicadas. I'm dreading the 17 year cicadas. I heard they come out in massive swarms. 😁
Shay NOLA: I have always loved #whitelights outdoors. I finally put some up along my fence in the corner garden near the pond. I love the ambience. #inmygarden
Shay NOLA: Either Summer is passing by way too quickly or my Japanese Anemone is blooming early. #inmygarden #japaneseanemone #latesummer #bloom #gardening #sunkissed
Shay NOLA: Sounds of Summer... #cicada #inmygarden on my #aspens. Being from the south, I would love to lie in the shade on a hot summer day, listening to the cicadas. The calls are a little different from the ones here, in Maryland, more singsong. One thing I'm not
Shay NOLA: Endless Summer #hydrangea still blooming. #inmygarden I love how this one is lighter in the center. Wishing everyone a great week...
Shay NOLA: I'm not one to have a lot of apps on my phone/iPad but this one was a must have. Painted in #Waterlogue #hosta #hostaflower #inmygarden
Shay NOLA: I think @thenerdyhosta was right. This was mislabeled as a June #hosta when I bought it. It's definitely looking more like Hosta Popcorn with its beautiful leaves fading from a yellow into white. #hostaholic #hostalove #inmygarden #shadegarden
Shay NOLA: Happy #sweetsixteen, Emily! Here's to having lots of amazing adventures in the coming years! Love ya... 😘
Shay NOLA: Little Jenni wanted #stuffedbellpeppers for #dinner. Just so happened I had some #bellpeppers #inmygarden! #cumin, smoked #driedtomatoes, #wildpecanbrownrice #konriko brand #conradricemill #newiberia #louisiana
Shay NOLA: One day... one day I will have a strong enough lens to take an amazing #moon shot. I love the pictures that have been posted of the blue moon. #oneday! #🌖
Shay NOLA: Pretty, little #dill #flowers #inmygarden. #Photowalk
Shay NOLA: I guess I should know what butterfly this #caterpillar will turn into, but I don't. Anyone know? It's so pretty I'm letting it have my dill plant. I have more anyway. 😜 #inmygarden #Photowalk
Shay NOLA: A new hosta, rocks and fresh mulch... I'm a happy girl! Guess it doesn't take much to make me happy. 😜 Taking pleasure in the small things... #inmygarden #hostalove #firnline #gardening #shadegarden #landofthegianthostas
Shay NOLA: If only we had a #bluemoon while on the beach. Can you imagine how beautiful that would have been on the horizon?? Still, it was beauty last night.
