Okay, yesterday. Thursday, June 12, I took a walk around the yard looking more closely at what was blooming and about to bloom and found I had seriously miscounted what was a'bloomin'.
Like I said, I have a couple hundred daisy and a couple hundred wild tall phlox blooming (though the tall phlox is near its end). Right now, the yard is a blaze of white and purple.
But, I an sad to say that I don't know the names of a whole lot of my flowers. If I ever get one of those new cell phones with a camera in it, I'll need to go around and photograph these "unknowns" and go to a garden nursery and find out what's what.These flowers, however, are nowhere near as numerous as the daisies and wild tall phlox. I will try to describe the "unknowns."
Most all of my flowers are perennials.
