Spring Beauties
Baptisia 'Purple Smoke' We are experiencing a rare day for June - drizzle and cool temps. But oh, things will change this weekend with 93 predicted for Sunday. I'm not looking forward to that. We decided to take a break from the garden today because of the weather and the fact that we've been working our butts off. Our garden will be on the HPSO Study Weekend tour at the end of the month so there is much to get done. I would normally schedule tours of our garden now in early June because I feel that it the peak time ( (and you can make individual appointments). For the Study Weekend tour, thank goodness for hydrangeas to give them something to look at! I've been filling holes and pots, Michael has been pruning and dead-heading. A few days ago, we completely redid a rock retaining wall which just about did us in. The weather has been lovely and I do hope the heat spell is a short-lived one.

So nice to get some new blooms to keep the garden going late in the season.
ReplyDeleteI can not say enough nice things about my 'Orange Peel'. It began blooming in May and has not stopped yet. It even got pruned by a car, and you would not know it today.
ReplyDeleteHow I wish the 'golden jasmine' would bloom in the northeast!
ReplyDeleteThe blue chip buddleia is so pretty. I had that once. It didn't like it here for some reason.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. Are you going to root any of them over the winter?
ReplyDeleteMy apple trees are blooming. Lovely blooms.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love the wide variety of critters attracted by your buddleia? Mine has become quite the attraction!
ReplyDeleteLove checking out your buddleiia with such a variance in size and color.
