The flowers of the late June garden

Posted on June 26, 2018 by forstegrupp

We don’t have many blooming plants in our garden because we get so much shade. But here are a few of them: monarda, daisies, echinacea, lace-cap hydrangea, bulb lilies, anise hyssop and purple poppy mallow. Most of these plants came from Prairie Nursery. It did take them a 2-3 years to really establish themselves and start blooming. The bees are particularly fond of the monarda and the hyssop.
