I love this time of year.
Summer is here and it’s warm and sunny outside – well most of the time, it’s been story here the last week or so, and of course the flowers are pretty much all in bloom. Just about perfect if you ask me.
It’s at this time of year that I really try to enjoy my garden. I still have a bit of work to do in the garden (add mulch to back flower beds), but for the most part the hard work is done. Now it’s the plants turn to pay me back for all the care of given them, and oh how they are paying it back this year!
Look at these lovely Heuchera flowers …
Isn’t that a gorgeous color?
On my two other Green Thumb Sunday blogs (Tricia’s Musings and As the Garden Grows) I showed my visitors rose and peony blooms, but there are so many other lovely flowers that are blooming in my garden right now.
Take the Lavender for example – it’s at it’s prime and it’s lovely.
Then there are my many clematis plants, most of which have blooms right now. This one is Arctic … something:
Last but definitely not least is the Malva. It produces such pretty flowers.
I could go on, but I’m sure you get the picture – my garden is alive with blooms and their lovely scent and I’m just loving it.

Those are some really nice pictures! I love the lavender. I pick some from my garden and put it in my bedroom to help me sleep. Good work!

Those flowers are all gorgeous! I wish I had the time and the drive to garden, because it would be awesome. Sigh.
