July Garden


Roses; tier upon tier, upon tier. Great heaps and drifts of them.


We didn't plant them. They came with the house, and were already well established when we arrived. Except for a wonderful peach/orange one that is getting more flamboyant every year.



The hollyhock weren't planted by us either, although they are in very different spots now. They drop their seeds willy nilly and have gradually edged their way around the lawn.


Hosta are so amazing. I love all of them. They have giant leaves in every shade of green. These are especially oversized, blue-green with especially generous flowers in lovely lavender.


And, these are garlic scapes. The stems curl and coil like preening geese. A gaggle of garlic geese.


The garden is a wondrous thing in July.
