In Michigan, we’ve had summer like temps but little to no rain. As a result, the garden is growing quickly, everyday yielding new blooms. This morning I was thrilled to see even more blooms in the garden, including my Dwarf Korean Lilac.
Much to my surprise, under the lilac bush, I found two of the feral kittens born about seven weeks ago on our porch. I imagine that the fragrance of the lilacs is relaxing for them.



Lots of shades of purple and yellow abound.
As I strolled around this morning, I found several “volunteers” that I didn’t plant but am happy to see all the same. My rule is, if it’s growing in a crack but it’s a flower, vegetable or herb – leave it be!
How lovely 🙂 Shame, what has happened with the little feral kittens?
Oh the kittens are fine, their mamas just moved them into the garden!
Oh that is cute, I just worry about the ferals.
Me too Lynne, we’ve cared for a feral colony that live in our backyard for a long while. They play in the gardens and are safe from cars and predators. Tipper and Bicotti were feral kittens born in our backyard and they are the sweetest, healthiest cats we’ve ever had. 😸😸
