New Garden Blooms!

I put in a new perennial, Lobellia, this year.  I hadn't heard of it before, and I needed something that would do well in shade, so my friendly local grower suggested it. 

Look at the bloom!  Love it!!  Thanks Michael!

And here are the mystery orchids that have appeared under my clump birch tree.  They are teeny tiny but beautiful.

They say we have had one of the wettest Junes on record.  Funny, I don't remember it being so rainy.   I feel like the weather has been so nice for so long, I can't believe it's only the beginning of July!  Promises of a beautiful sunny and warm weekend have been made-let's hope they're right.
