The June Garden

The June garden is always a spectacular shift from the Spring bulbs and flowering shrubs to the early Summer perennials. In what seems like a flash, the gardens are bursting with new growth and masses of bloom.



As the days grow longer, the light seems to dance through the landscape across each garden.






The soft and silky colors create breathtaking combinations. For instance, the early climbing Rose "William Baffin" combines beautifully with Siberian Iris and Heuchera "Coral Bells."



Salvia "May Night," Heuchera "Coral Bells," and just about any Peony make a perfect threesome.



Who can resist perennial Bachelors Buttons (Centaurea Montana) with their true blue flowers rising gracefully behind the foliage of daylilies? Add some soft blue pansies peaking out from the base of the daylilies and the picture is perfect!
