The garden is rockin'

This week, tons of things started to bloom. The peonies are pretty much done (they're SO short lived), but the lilies and day lilies are making up for it.

 

There may be some poppies too.....

 

all in all, as someone recently said...."it looks like a monet painting". That was kind of the plan.

 

The clearance rack was rocking too.....two white peonies, a red clematis, a couple of hostas, a white ground cover, and some other things I've forgotten.

 

The garden is going crazy too. I'm up to my eyeballs in raspberries and peas, the apples are doing great, the carrots are growing, the onions are huge and the lettuce needs to be picked. Salad anyone?

 

Next week.....there's a nursery on Vashon Island that's going out of business and everything is half price. How can you NOT go check that out? A full report next week.

 

Off to water.
