Blooms for Tuesday

Now that it's summer, there are new blooms almost daily, and more and more are finishing up for the season.

The daylilies are providing lots of color.

The veronicas are doing well, too.

I know I've shown lots of milkweed blooms, but this is the first from the common milkweed.  The neighbors will appreciate it if I don't let these go to seed.

I pinched back most of the goldenrods, but may have forgotten some.  I'll have to check back to see if the first ones started blooming this early in the past.

 The stoke's asters are starting to bloom.

The daylilies I call, "Shopko" because that's where I got them are loaded with blooms, as usual.

 I included a few photos that show some plants that are blooming together.  The bright daylilies are 'Wally' that I fell in love with from someone's yard online, and found a place to order it and some others a few years ago.

I think this yarrow is 'Paprika'.

The drumstick alliums are showing color now.

The false sunflowers are at their best now.  Can you see the clematis growing on the lattice on the deck?  (Added 6/28/11: The scientific name is heliopsis helianthoides.)

I can't think of the name of this plant.  I showed it for foliage follow up, and now, it has cute yellow blooms.

I always enjoy the limoniums.  The blooms can be cut to dry, but they also last a long time on the plant.

The daylily on the left is in the same location my mother-in-law had it planted in when she was alive and lived here.  It was surrounded by grass, though, and not these other plants.

I'll have to see if I can find the tag for this new clematis that I planted last year.  This is its first bloom.

The name of the clematis on the other side of the arch trellis isn't coming to my brain right now, but I've put it in the blog in the past.  It sure is full of blooms!

 Here's the honeysuckle that's in front of the house.
