June's Garden

The garden in June is always a treat.














Peonies unfold and dance in the breeze...












Irises too!












Orange Poppies and purple salvia clamor to be seen.









The Weigela Shrub spreads its branches and sends its blossoms cascading here and there.










 Spiderwort refuses to stay in one place.  It pops up everywhere.











The garden is always lovely.   June's is especially so.

"The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places..."Psalm 16:6 (NIV).   I hope yours have too!
  God Bless and thank you for letting me share my garden in June.

  8. Your garden certainly is a treat Debbie! There is always something new flowering! I don't think I've ever seen peonies in real life so I don't know what they smell like, but from what I can gather they are divine! Happy gardening!

  13. It is lovely to see so much in flower in your garden - I especially love the pale pink peonies - such a shame that their blooms don't last longer. My garden is too shady to grow iris which is a shame the deep purple is divine and I am truly envious of yours.

  14. I've just noticed how similar your painting style is to Barbra Joan's. You both have such a soft hand when you lay it to paper and the paintings are always beautiful!!

  21. Good afternoon, Debbie! How lovely to see your garden inspirations here today! June is indeed a special month with the end of the school year finally here (except two meetings for me tomorrow!) and then garden fun. I already started some serious pruning yesterday, and came in pleasantly fatigued.

    Thank you so much for coming to comment on my post. It is much appreciate! That first watercolor you show is BEAUTIFUL! Anita

  27. Debbie your garden photos are just gorgeous! Love that pink peony! I have the white and dark red ones, for some reason the pink one died a few years ago.. I'm blaming the voles!

  28. Your June garden is lovely. My spiderwort doesn't travel. Hmmm must be the rotten soil it is in.
