After days of steady rain, the garden is singing with life—fresh greenery and fragrant blooms everywhere you look! I’m enjoying an incredible lineup: clematis, garden and creeping phlox, bellis, coreopsis, azalea, iris, foxglove, a rainbow of roses, Asiatic lilies, plantain lily, shasta daisies, daylilies, black-eyed Susans, hydrangeas, big blue, tickseed, gardenia, hosta, rhododendron, carnations, sage, catmint, lilacs, hydrangeas—and more surprises on the way.
It’s nature’s encore, and I’m here for every petal of it!
