It’s really JUNE 2018??? I thought sure that May would slink by slowly and it rained most every day leaving us with a total of six inches in the rain gauge. May was wet but beauty abounded on our farm and I’m going to show you just a touch of it!!

Pink Sweet William. It’s a perennial for me and this area is three years old and it’s reseeding every year.

I have a small area in my rose garden with Sweet William which was my grandmother’s favorite. I have several colors of this plant in the rose garden.

This red rose has continued blooming since Mother’s Day and I think it will all summer as long as I keep pinching off the spent blooms.

The wild rabbits killed most of my roses during the winter so my wonderful children gave me 10 new roses for Mother’s Day. This beauty is one of them.

The glass shimmers when the sun hits them and they’re a little subdued when the sunlight is not hitting them.

This is one of my new glass flowers, a new hobby. I make flowers for my garden out of old dishes. They add color between the different seasons of the flowers.

First year of white columbine, even more delicate! I think there is a yellow columbine and a red that I need to add to my collection. I’ll look into that.

Gorgeous blue columbine. I started out with one little columbine plant about four years ago and now there’s a multitude of them!!

Gerber daisy in a hanging basket that Eddie got me for Mother’s Day. One week later it had out grown the basket because it had four plants in it. I separted them into two large pots beside my front steps.
Wonderful flowers and I love those garden ornaments … 🙂

Beautiful and happy flowers! We too had a lot of rain and now it’s so humid it’s a bug heaven out there. I’m already wishing for snow to get rid of the gnats!!! Sad but true

Those bearded iris are exquisite! I will be posting pictures of two of mine pretty soon, but they all finished quite a while ago. The columbine is fizzling out, and because I have not grown much of it before, I do not know what the next phase will be like. The roses here are on their second and third phases.

Beautiful. Hopefully this is what I can look forward to in about a month’s time, maybe even 3 weeks! 🙂
