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).

ReplyDeleteI love all that foliage color! We don't get anything like that in my part of SoCal. I've only a handful of plants that color-up at all but I probably won't see anything from them for another month or more.
ReplyDeleteLots and lots of color--it is beautiful. I love the photo of the Amsonia with the 'Rozanne' flowers popping up through it.
ReplyDeleteGood camerawork and editing on the video as well!
