May Showers Bring June Flowers

WHEW! I’ve been boxing paintings to ship and preparing new canvases the last couple of days. So I just thought I’d share a little of our garden with you today. We had almost 3 inches of rain at the end of May and now we’re reaping the rewards. Our cacti are happy campers! The daisy like yellow flowers are called “Green Thread” because of their long, thin stems.

Here’s another one of our cactus. That’s Society Garlic blooming in the distant bed. You can click on the picture to see it larger.

Even the Hedgehog Cactus in our mailbox planter has wonderful pink blossoms. The small pink flowers are Drummond Phlox, we have Ms. Mockingbird to thank for planting them.

Variegated Ginger joins in the show.

And our “Frankly Scarlet” Daylilies definitely don’t want to be left out.

Paul and Nancy, some of our collectors gave us this pot. We love the combination of Petunias, Angelonia and Apricot Gaillardia.

Even the Succulents are happy and starting to show blooms. All is well in Jack and Mikki’s garden. I’ll be starting on a new commission in my next post, hope you’ll come follow along. Hugs, Mikki Senkarik
