    My Oriental poppy is beginning to open.

    The Ostrich Ferns and Hostas are having a good year.

    I don't know what this is, but I think it is a type of Day Lilly?

    Wow everyone your gardens and flowers are to die for. Just so uplifting to see all your gardens growing and blooming . Adds to the cheerfulness of the summer season. If you had seen me mowing the fields today, you would have heard me say don’t the clouds look green today! :rolleyes:

    Zigs looks like Queen Anne's Lace which is often confused with the highly poisonous - poison hemlock, it is not as dangerous. The stem of Queen Anne's lace will be hairy and it will have fine hairs all the way up the stem, and no spots whereas poison hemlock will be a smooth stem with purple blotches. I’m always on the look out for poisonous
    plants that pop up in the pastures.

    Time to add pics of the ‘purple and pinks’.

    The roses are showing off & they are the Bonita roses , lightly fragrant.

    Oreti—You are too sweet. Of course you are aware that your own gardens and lowers really are world class. Chapeau.

    Pac— cheers mate. Those bumbles and the one honeybee are fun to see.
