I got inspired by Loree's latest blog post sharing her first of June blooms so here's a few of ours...
Magnolia laevifolia (syn. M. yunnanensis)
The buds look like almonds before they open and the blooms scent is lovely!
Spreading away as usual - Euphorbia deflexa
Kniphofia northiae blooms are as robust and chunky looking as the plant itself
Sometimes the best way to get a good look at the blooms is...
to cut them off and move closer to you.
Especially if it's on the tips of branches over 30 feet high
Paulownia tomentosa
Never noticed them until I stooped down by chance, dainty blooms from Actinidia kolomikta
With summer on its way I'm sure there will be more blooms to look forward. And even more foliage of course!Mark :-)
