Mid June

Things are changing very fast around here.  Here are a few photos from three weeks back before my cycling accident when things were a bit dryer, just after the peak peonies though thankfully I still had a few in the side yard though past their prime were full of color.

 Milk weed, geranium and some kind of sedum

Honeysuckle and hosta

Backyard jungle of hostas, ferns and forest pansy red bud along with shrubs 

New photos on a stroll around the west side of the house

After an overnight and all day rain:

My attempt at a rain garden.  The grasses died over the winter, so they need too be replaced.

Siberian iris, catmint and  unknown plant
