This week in the Garden 8/5/13

Most of you can tell I’ve been slacking a bit here on my blog!  It’s for a very good reason though! I promise!!!  I am hosting a Ladies Luncheon/Auction at my home this upcoming Sunday in honor of my dear friend Ashley Trenner.  Ashley made this statement in her last King 5 interview ~

“If there's one person's life that I can affect, then that's a beautiful gift that I could give to somebody..”  – Ashley Richards Trenner (1972-2013)

So continuing to share her message, I’ve invited 50 guests, and embraced a lot of help to do so! This will be a beautiful event in Ashley’s honor ~ I cannot wait to share with you next week how everything comes together!  Here is this weeks garden photo’s ~ Enjoy!

One question though – anyone know what this is? I planted a few of these, but can’t remember what they are?

Your beautiful home and gardens will be an amazing backdrop for the event you're hosting Tracie. I think Ashely's message will hit home with everyone.

Looks like a hot poker, but I've never grown them, so dont' know if they start out white like that. Time will tell! I do that all the time.

Looking forward to photos of your get-together.

I'm pretty sure your mystery plant is Kniphofia, also known as red hot poker plant. It seems a little late for it to be blooming, but the foliage and the bud sure looks like it!

Your dear friend's story left an impact on me. I have shared it with others! And your garden is lovely. Your gate is very charming! Thank you for hosting a party. Is there anything I need to do that I haven't in order to join in?
