Well, here it is Summer in full swing. Welcome to the jungle – busy buzzing, mad blossoming, balmy nights. Some plants are withering with lack of rain but overall the garden seems content.
A few surprises ... a floating water plant in a galvanized tub blooms, a Clematis bloom peeks through the wall of hydrangeas and grapevine.
In the Bird & Butterfly Garden Bee Balm, Shasta Daisies, Purple Coneflowers, Joe Pye Weed, and Summer Nights Oxeye Daisies dance together among grasses Morning Light and Dallas Blues.
In the Woodland Edge Cutleaf Coneflower and Cup Plant reach new heights.
The pollinator border in the Potager overflows onto this path.
Cheers to you Nice Driveway! Hummingbirds float in a heavenly state of Bee Balminess.
Out front Allium sphaerocephalon poms replace the blooms of common chives, baskets of Begonias and herbs thrive.
Thank you Carol at May Dreams Gardens for hosting Garden Bloggers Bloom Day the 15th of each month.
