Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day: June 15, 2012

I didn't post for May's Bloom Day because I was in Asheville for the last Bloom Day - my how this month has flown by!

With the early start to spring, I thought that the flowers might be getting sparser by mid-June, but that hasn't happened. 

For more Bloom Day posts from all over, check out the June Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day at May Dreams Gardens

Here's what's blooming in our yard:

We redid the pots on the deck two weeks ago.  We replaced the 20 year old dingy grey pots with some new colorful ones.

A lovely cottage-y collection. Your potplant collection looks pretty as a picture on the deck. I think I have the same sage, but I also love your rudbeckia or the coneflower. I think I have seeds for the latter, so fingers crossed - next season!

I like a post thats to the point: GBBD. thanks for the nice tour of your garden blooms.

Erica

What a beautiful range of flowers! Those balloon flowers do spread themselves around, don't they?

Summer

Beautiful! I didn't even know that daisies came in doubles.

Hannah

My lemon daylily is blooming now too, but the rest of your flowers are way ahead of mine. I like your rooster, and all the colorful flowers.

Oh, I love your lilies gone wild! They're fantastic! I don't have any lilies really going yet, we're still on foxgloves here.
