New for June!
The coreopsis I planted last year, and forgot about. Only a single plant came up, and I’ve spent the past several weeks trying to figure out what it was I planted. The big, broadleafed plant behind the coreopsis is also going to be a surprise, assuming that it isn’t just squash that came up from the compost.
The Coral Bells are doing very well this year, with huge purple flowers. This evening the sun was just behind the plant as I was walking down the driveway, and I loved the way that the leaves glowed.
My new lemon thyme plant is flowering–I don’t remember last years plant flowering. I’m going to start a cutting from this one, and when it’s large enough, plant it and see if it survives the winter outside better than it did in my basement, because I really love this plant–the leaves, the smell, everything.
