June Blooms

It's nice to finally have a wet spring. My flower beds are lush and full of blooms. June is probably the peak for flowers in my beds. It's cloudy and looks like rain again today, but I took pictures anyway to capture some of the prettiness before it is gone.

I have a terrible deer problem and most of what I grow is as deer proof as possible. I've sprayed these Asiatic Lillies with Liquid Fence all spring and now I'm rewarded with blooms. Liquid Fence really works if you keep it applied as directed on the label.

I have to spray the Sedum, too.








The Hollyhocks you see are ancient volunteers. I let them reseed and enjoy their blooms year after year. I have to keep these sprayed with Liquid Fence, too.







I have two Hydrangeas and they both have to live in a "cage" to protect them from the deer. I've had deer netting over them for so long that I really don't even notice it anymore. It's better than not having blooms!
I hope you enjoyed seeing some of my flowers. I'm off to mow the grass before it rains again. It looks like we are in for some heavy storms this afternoon.
