Here is the latest and greatest in my garden on this, dare I say, warm and beautiful May afternoon.
It’s all about the Allium right now, as the fruits of my fall labor are being realized this spring. I’ve got at least 25 Allium bulbs in bloom right now and they are kicking ass and taking names.
They look good up close.
And as we pan back …
… and back even further.
Baptisia blooms have arrived this week and I’m thinking this day should be declared a holiday each year. That is how festive it makes me feel. At a minimum, I’m going to push for #NationalBaptisiaDay on Twitter leading up to this day in 2017.
Siberian iris ‘Snow Queen’ is blooming but I’m only giving you a macros shot because they actually look kind of lousy because this lazy gardener has refused to divide them for four years running now.
Amsonia tabernaemontana is blooming and that’s all I will say here because I’ve raved about this plant enough already.
All of my peonies will be blooming within the next week or so and until then, I’ll enjoy the ridiculously delicious scent of the lilac in the background.
Another day, another sigh from me regarding the awesomeness of Ninebark ‘Amber Jubilee’.
And finally, it’s time to sit back and enjoy watching the garden fill in while all empty spaces disappear.
Thank you again for stopping by.
I am going to try something new today. A “Question of The Day”. Here it is:
