The irises have come and gone for the spring.
So have the peonies.
The honeysuckle is nearing its end, the sticky sweet aroma filling the yard.
The day lilies are sending up their flower stems. Each is sure to out shine the next with vibrant colors and stamens that will stain your clothing if they come into contact with you.
The purple cone flowers have spread (with my help) along the drainage ditch and by the house. Their buds are growing with the passing hours and soon with explode with color and energy to tempt the bees.
The vegetable garden is becoming floral as well. The potatoes and squashes are starting to flower, their leaves beginning to make it unpleasant for grass to invade their well-rooted territory.
I look forward to whatever opens up next, the colors, sights and smells they will bring with them.
