Garden on June 1


Well here we are in June--the time sure does go by fast these days. The garden is really at its peak right now--with roses, lavender, larkspur, coreopsis, perennial geraniums, all in full bloom. Just starting are the hydrangeas, daylilies, coneflowers, daisies, astilbes. The past few days have been perfect, sunny and in the low 80s, perfect for working outside. I spent a good part of yesterday in the garden, deadheading things, weeding, moving pots around. I need to be extra vigilant with the deadheading this year, as I am trying to maximize the blooms for garden tour time in late June.

And here are some other fleurs blooming this Friday morning.
