Lots of beautiful flowers!
I especially like all the Clematis blooms.
Happy Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!

Wow! What a lot of gorgeous blooms you have. Love that 'Marchesa Boccella' rose.

I am SO envious of your Clematis, Phillip. That Galega is interesting but I can't even find the genus in my sunset Western Garden Book, which can't be a good sign.

Other than Arabella my Clems have long gone over-and Arabella does look dreadful even as it continues to pump out the blooms. I have 2, so I am doing an experiment and cutting one of them back to about 2 feet to see what happens.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful blooms, Phillip. You have gorgeous flowers in your area. We are suffering from the heat in western Kentucky. Daily watering is a must for us right now.

Oh my, fabulous Clematis! 'Essex' and 'Phenomenal' make a great pairing, too.

So envious of your Foxtail Lily bloom! (I had no success with this bulb).
I love the Gold Buttons and Carex combo: very cool. Are you growing the Alstroemeria in a pot? Is it behaving well in your garden?

The alstroemeria is in the ground. So far, so good. This is the second year.

Oh no, I sure don't miss that! :(

'Arabella' is fairly new to me. It has not been that vigorous yet.

Kris, that is surprising. Joy Creek used to carry it but they are closed now.

That is a nice one!
