In the Garden

asiatic lilies :: purple coneflowers :: calendula :: violas :: daylilies

The flower beds are in a stage of almost-ness. Following the second wave peonies and iris, the third wave is almost here. Instead of veg, I planted wildflowers and herbs in the raised bed and they are just starting to come into their own. In the front of the house, the purple coneflowers are picking up where the roses and coreopsis left off.

I honestly don't know how they're doing it. We've been positively parched, here, the driest spring we've known here. But somehow they manage. It's going to be grand.
