What's Looking Good In June 2022

Same as the last month
Foxgloves


Buttercups where i walk the boys

 

Just been out and snapped these, otherwise nothing new has burst into life yet.

 

Little House Martin preening in Jacaranda ...

 

@Victoria Those trees look very nice! What are they?

 

Vicky said in her post @Balc .....Jacaranda Trees.

 

Yes, as Upsy said, Jacaranda mimosifolia just coming into bloom.

 

Callistemon Hot Pink.


Melaleuca virens (Lime Green Bottlebrush) first flower from mixed seed packet bought in Sydney three years ago.


Begonia Santa Cruz.

 

I have two similiar "Summerwings" and "Boliviensis" but they are just coming back out of their tubers.. I got nothing from my "Santa Cruz" seeds.

 

Finally, the Gerbera daisy seeds I planted on December 3, 2021 produced a flower on June 1, 2022.

 

Mock Orange just springing into action.

 

I love Mock Orange, had one in Bucks.

Not much here as it is grey and breezy and cool but took this on trellis outside front door ... Mandevilla waking up and Salvia farinacea next to it ...

I am working hard to get things on the trellises put up last Summer.

 

The border this morning
Jenny namaste

 

Oriental poppies with white foxgloves and Welsh poppies. My east facing border this morning.

 

Went back out and got a few more shots in the greyness ...

Jacaranda mimosifolia against Callistemon viminalis re-blooming again ...


Corner Trellis with Mandevilla on right and Passiflora edulis on left ...


Thevetia peruviana with first blooms ...


Lantana in old china sink ...


The biggest surprise of all ... a Brugmansia which was dead and I pulled the stem up last year has come to life again ...


Here is it in its glory in 2008 ...
