Summer Garden

Normal people plant tame flowers and enjoy their color. I'm not normal. I fling wildflower seeds out in the fall and hope that something wonderful will happen the next spring and summer. Of course a wildflower garden looks like a bunch of weeds to the normal person. Right now, my "weeds" are in full bloom and I think they are wonderful.

The aster started to bloom on the 6th of July. I'm predicting we will have 8 more weeks of summer.

There are 2 types of harebells...

...can you hear them ringing?

This is a double 3 spot lily...a very delicate flower in the garden. It's sometimes called a Sego Lily. I've only seen this one so far. The flowers sometimes hide amidst the greenery.

     

There's lupine and

Orange Paintbrush and saxifrage that's almost taller than me!
