End of June, In the Gardens
By the end of June, all of the garden beds, borders, and rockeries are filled with flowering plants and the early vegetable, berry, and herbs can be harvested. More time is spent weeding, deadheading, and supporting new growth. A few images of flowering shrubs, flowering herbs, flowering vines, and perennials are shared here.
Some of the garden herbs also produce flowers before starting to set seed. Shared here are arrugula, thyme, feverfew, cress, and coriander. Included here are some vegetable crops like peas, raspberries, mustard greens, and last year’s carrot (now going to seed production). Click an image for a lightbox view and a caption.
Some images from flowering vines, perennials, and shrubs are also shared – clematis (vine), perennial sweet peas, stonecrop, spirea (shrub), mock orange (shrub), and penstemon. Can you match these to the images?
Over the fall and winter, some articles on some of these will follow. Planned posts on mock orange and coriander/cilantro are already started. Watch for these over the upcoming months.
