It’s June and in the garden we find.

Lots of irises!

The foxgloves are just starting to come out. They are definitely among my absolute favourite flowers, and I’ve planted a whole pile of seeds last week- though I’m still waiting for them to germinate.

This gorgeous salmon coloured one is out front. And those flowers are HUGE!

That’s my hand beside it. And the funny part – I don’t even remember buying this particular poppy. I thought I bought a red one!

Out back, I do have a red poppy. And a white one.

And apparently they’ve been making whoopie and spreading their seeds because I now also have…

I know also have a pale pink one mixed in! These one’s aren’t quite as big as the ones out front, but they are close.

Here they are all together. A happy little family.

I have several colours of Salvia, and they are all starting to bloom. Though none of the others are in bloom quite like this white one (though they will be soon).

These teeny little dianthans are just starting to bloom. I’m guessing eventually they will be covered in flowers like their bigger cousins.

Just stunning!

The purple lupin are in full bloom and as rich and beautiful as ever.

I bought a little hibiscus on clearance. It was pretty sad looking but I was sure I could bring it back. I did, and now it’s blooming beautifully! The frog planter came from one of our recent thrifting adventures. I think they pair perfectly

And last…

Prairie Princess wins the honour of being the first rose to bloom! I think it’s going to be the beginning of a wonderful rose season!
