June blooms are passing and July’s are waiting in the wings. A last fond look at many flowers we won’t see until next year: Geum ‘Totally Tangerine’, daisies (Leucanthemum vulgare), Carolina lupine (Thermopsis villosa), sundrops (Oenothera fruticosa), Veronica ‘Crater Lake Blue’, hearts-ease (Viola tricolor) catmint (Nepeta racemosa), lamb’s ears (Stachys byzantina). Two newly blooming zinnias introduce us to July (Z. elegans ‘Envy’ and Z. marylandica ‘Zahara’ Salmon.

June brings daisies (Leucanthemum vulgare) abundantly into bloom, so I picked a vaseful of these cheerful flowers as a base for this week’s vase. Also included are Carolina lupine (Thermopsis villosa), sundrops (Oenothera fruticosa), smooth brome grass (Bromus inermis) and Allium (A. aflatunense ‘Purple Sensation’) seed heads.
