Not many flowers left but this honeysuckle and the banana tree's are huge this year!
I love this blue flower too. I am not sure if it is a morning glory or what it is...any
thoughts? I was outside taking pictures and something stung me in the back of the leg
right were my knee bends. It flew away but I think it was a wasp or hornet..
Anyway put some baking soda paste on it but it is still burning and stinging. Ouch!!!
What do you think is a good treatment of stings? Hope you have a great Monday.

I understand toothpaste is supposed to help!
Doesn't it smell wonderful though! I love it and we recently planted one out by our shed, sweet chick.....

Oh, ratz, forgot to say that same thing happend to hubs while camping last weekend. It is swollen and is definitely a wasp sting. Looks red and terrible but ya know men!! Nuuuuuuu, doesn't hurt one bit! Arrghhhh.....

So sorry that you got stung. I've heard that it helps to make the baking soda paste with vinegar instead of water but I don't know if it helps. I hope that you feel better soon.
The pictures you posted are beautiful. Your yard is lovely. I can smell the fragrance from here.
thanks for sharing, Lura
The honeysuckle looks beautiful. I bet the fragrance is wonderful. Not sure about the sting. I once squashed a wasp by accident when I leant on it with my elbow and the pain was horrendous. After a few days it was ok.
those flowers are beautiful! thanks for coming by and please come back!
as for me, I always did the baking soda paste myself. the stinging just takes time to go away.
Ouchie...somone told me meat tenderizer help wiith stings.
Your honeysuckle is gorgeous and I bet it is smell wonderful. The bush with the blue flowers is a morning glory...I love them. Hugs, Linda
Hi Joy, Your honeysuckle looks so beautiful and does your morning glory vine! I loved seeing your post about the wedding in St. Charles. My friend and I did a quick "run through" of St. Charles a few weeks ago--it is one of my favorite places--that park looked beautiful! Dana
I love honeysuckle too....we have it all through our woods & it always smells heavenly. The blue flowers are morning glories....one of my favorites! I've always used baking soda for stings too & it always seems to help. I LOVE your banana trees - something I've always wanted but have never planted!
I would think it heavenly to have a banana tree. I remember seeing so many when I was in Martinique. Ah, to sing in the banana grove, a Spanish song of joy!
Honeysuckle is one of my favourite scents. I find it intoxicating. I would love a perfume that exactly duplicates that scent.
wow... magnificent! in what zone do you live? I have two honeysucke trees, but nothing like yours...this is some showy beaty!

Joy, I am so.. jealous of the honeysuckle. I wish I had one. They smell heavenly. The blue flower is a Morning Glory!!
Hugs, Terrie
