What's Blooming

Here we are, officially in June.

Yikes! Where did the year go? We only have (officially) three weeks left of spring and my transplanting is not done. I have done so much more than past years, though, so I don't feel too badly. After all, we're not moving anytime soon (strange), so I do have more time on this yard.

Here are the blooms for this week - the garden is starting to show off a little, don't you think?

Candytuft:

Primroses: These I transplanted because they were taking over a garden bed. I placed them in another bed where they can truly take over and enjoy the space. I may add spring bulbs, but otherwise, they'll have free reign.

Spirea:

 Iberian Iris, in both purple/yellow and just plain yellow: These are very short-lived, although they are stunning for the 6-7 days they're around.

Lily of the Valley:

Blue Salvia:

Rose Pink: These were from the wildflower mix I sprinkled indiscriminately around my garden beds last year. I'm glad to see them again.

And finally, Baby's Breath: This is the white flower in the lower left of the picture. I've heard from many sources that the perennial version of this plant isn't anything exciting - but I find myself really liking it. So much so that I may actually plant more of it. On purpose (this was another specimen of the wildflower experiment).

And there you have it! I'm off to do more weeding, soil modification...feel free to join me any time!
