To start off our monthly Garden Blogger's Bloom Day post, editor Gwen Steege is sharing her Rose of Sharon, Sneezeweed (Helenium), Sedum Autumn Joy and Sea Holly (Eryngium).

The potted herbs above belong to our new Senior Publicist Michelle Blackley, and they've survived New York City, downtown Buffalo, and her recent move to Williamstown. Can you hear the big sigh of relief they're breathing? Below, some blooms brighten her deck.
Maryellen Mahoney's garden in Shaftsbury Vermont has been inspiring all summer long, but judging from the four photos below it really glows in August.

The next four are from the garden of Deb Burns, in Williamstown, MA.
Chicory and Queen Anne's lace along the driveway
Lilies and phlox
Russian sage and black-eyed Susans on stone wall
Scarlet Runner beans in bloom

In my own garden Echinachea is blooming and the butterflies are happy.

And enough Hydrangeas in bloom to cut and bring inside when it rains.
You can visit May Dreams Gardens to see more of what's blooming this August.
