I decided to participate in Garden Bloggers Bloom day which is hosted by May Dreams Gardens on the 15th of each month. I want to participate every month this year but I have already missed May.
June's Window Box, lets see if it will grow to the brick again like last year.
One of the two urns out front. They have grown nicely since planting them a few weeks ago.
Pansies on the front porch. These have done well in the cool spring we had. They will however become compost soon as the weather warms. You may see I have some deck & porch painting to do this summer.
Jacob's Ladder, these blooms have an amazing smell. Believe it or not these are blooming well growing in a shopping bag. I dug them up about a month ago to make way for the fence and have not replanted yet. Tough plant for sure.
Green Arrow Shell Pea. They are blooming like crazy and are a very productive & sweet variety.
Crimson Flowered Broad Beans. I have finally found a couple beans growing. They also have black aphids which is unavoidable with these plants from what I have read. I will start spray with soapy water tonight.
Northern Lights Azalia. It has grown very slowly but I am not complaining as these plants really don't like our climate or soil.
Coral Bell
Hardy Variegated Geranium
Nora Barlow Columbine. I will have seed available from this plant if anyone is interested in a trade??
Ladies Mantel. This is the full sized version, I have a dwarf one out back that I like much more.
Blue Eyed Grass. I picked this up on a whim and am very happy I did. What a nice little plant and is very hardy to even prairie weather.
To end things off here is the first bloom on the Peony I planted over 3 years ago. The single flowered ones are my favorite. I think it needs a pink friend though after seeing so many pink single ones blogged about..jpg)
