Early June in my garden

We got home yesterday to find many of our early summer flowers had burst into bloom during our vacation out of state. What fun to see all the color here.

THESE LITTLE WHITE FLOWERS ARE IN BLOOM NEAR OUR FRONT PORCH. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE:


LOTS OF BEARD-TONGUE PENSTEMON ALL OVER THE YARD:




LAST YEAR'S NEW LITTLE COREOPSIS PLANT IS GOING TO TAKE OFF THIS YEAR:


WE HAVE MANY CATMINT PLANTS AROUND THE YARD. YARROW IS ABOUT TO BLOOM JUST IN FRONT OF THIS ONE:



APACHE PLUME BUSH IN OUR BACKYARD. NOT SURE I LIKE IT, BUT IT IS DIFFERENT! (It grows wild all along the roadsides here, too.)

I love the flowers, but I never know the names.

Not sure I like my Apache Plume either... at least so much of it - our "bushes" are HUGE and sort of unwieldy.

I love Coreopsis but it doesn't do well here. Your plants are just so beautiful.

Welcome home!

Beard-Tounge! I have been trying to get someone to tell me what those flowers are for 2 years. They are beautiful right now!
