More Early June Garden

I am back with more photos from my early June garden. Hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy just working in, viewing and soaking up the nature that abounds here.

I planted many foxgloves through out the garden and the forest edges. My goal is for them to self seed and spread. I have some from last year that have seeded themselves and I will be attempting to relocate some of them. This is tricky because of their tap root. Often these types of rooted plants don't like to be moved. Will see what happens in late summer/ early fall.

I caged my trillium to prevent the deer from eating it. I had a group of about five that they managed to feast on. I doubt I will see them again. But one can always wish and hope.

Trillium

Japanese Forest Grass and late blooming daffodils

Columbine- the main stem was eaten earlier by the deer. The result was a shorter plant with more flowers.

Deep blue Iris

Dianthus

Allium and Fern Leaf Bleeding Heart


Brunnera "Silver Heart"

Foxglove (digitalis) with the Iris

Another view of the foxgloves

Our begonia Benitochiba we wintered over inside. The other pots are impatiens and

The foxgloves were planted last fall. Being a biennial we hope that they seed themselves for next year.

Planted over 30 of these lovelies throughout the garden and edges. Hoping they will self seed.and spread

Iris up close and personal.


Love these Japanese Painted ferns
