Summer Flowers in Big Bear

I took these pictures of the flowers around the house in Big Bear.  Aren't they beautiful?  I hope that they all look so nice when Jim's family comes to visit in a couple of weeks.

These are the plants that we have behind the garage.  It is really a shady area and we were soooo pleased to see so many of the plants come back after winter.
These are coral bells and marigolds near the garage.  
The pink and red flowers in the back are dianthus.  They love the hot dry weather.
The baskets hanging on the front of the garage are red, white and purple petunias.  We put these out around the fourth.  They are still doing pretty well.
These are some really strange plants that we put in last year.   They are supposed to be native to our area and require very little water.  They even came back after winter.
