Garden in Early June, 2004

More activity as the summer flowering season heats up.  More of my roses are actively flowering now, and some of my perennials are kicking up quite a show for first-year plants.

Biggest problem for me right now is the weeds!  We've had about twice our average rainfall in the past six weeks, and it shows... I haven't had the time or cooperative weather to weed (or I've been busy with other things on nice days) so the weeds are rampant.  Obviously, I won't be posting pictures of THOSE!
