How do my gardens grow?

Well, thanks to an unusually cool and wet spring, they flourish! June is Asiatic Lily month, as the middle left and bottom images attest. My oakleaf hydrangia is also blooming spectacularly (middle right). Upper right is my beloved and finniky Bee Balm in a bed of yellow "moon flower". The last image is of some of my geraniums. I over winter them on my sun porch, and they are absolutely at the zenith of their rejoicing in being out-of-doors again!

I have taken to making a late lite breakfast on days when the temperature and humidity allow just to enjoy my little gardens under the parasol festooned table on my back deck. It's a gracious way to start the day.
