An English garden

In the garden, finally, there is colour emerging from the profusion of greenery.
June is the month of roses-
most of my roses are fragrant, especially on a summer's evening

and poppies

My borders are ablaze with geum

and all sorts of geraniums which flourish in part sun, part shady conditions; everything is a bit dashed by all the torrential showers but that is the excitement and challenge of gardening.

and my strawberries from M are promising!

In the hedgerows (especially in Kent enjoying time with D2) the hedges are crammed with dog roses

while the verges are covered in auld man's baccy- don't ask me the proper name! Cow parsley?

Suburban or rural, foxgloves are standing tall and humming with bees penetrating their inner most sanctums; maybe their proliferation is due to the extraordinary weather conditions thisyear.

The Solstice  and Midsummer's day is past so come on all we need before summer passes us by is a bit of sun.....
