June 2012 Blooms

Another late Bloom Day post, though these photos were actually taken on the 15th.  Here's some of what is blooming mid-month.

In the garage garden, Easter lilies, tall phlox, and valerian: 

'Easter' lilies

Phlox paniculata 'Franz Schubert'

 

Valerian

Last spring I threatened to shovel-prune the valerian, but it took advantage of my procrastination and lived another year.

On the patio, an assortment of black-eyed susan and two colors of echinacea:

In the upper terrace, Stokesia, Spigelia marlandica, and Monarda:

Some columbine that don't know when to stop:

In the side garden, the balloon flowers are popping:

The front yard is even looking showy this month.  Along the front walk are several types of Rudbeckia, some 'Rocky Top' Echinacea, larkspur, lavender (not pictured), and some pansies hanging on:
