Imagine my surprise when I saw that everything was Coming Up Roses in the Garden at my house. My home garden has had a wonderful bloom season for irises, but now is the time for the roses and summer flowers. I had only a few isolated blooms before last weekend, but all of a sudden here were all of these roses blooming in my home garden. Come and take a look.
It's Mosaic Monday June 11 and I am sharing flowers blooming in my garden. The irises and peonies are waning, but the daylilies have shown their first flowers. Summer blooms are on the way.
