This is my chaos gardening. The second photo is Palmer's penstemon, my favorite. They are TALL, smells divine, and bees love them.

It is easier to keep up Summer's front acre and leave the rest of the acres to be empty fields.

The lupins this year only first opened last weekend, and are now fairly prolific already! Will have to keep an eye out for Dennis Mooreβ¦
Today's farmers market still had plenty of ranunculus β but also other flowers, like this strawflower and statice combination.

I had some time off in lieu due me, so I accepted a friend's offer to check out the tulip farm this morning, which was lovely.
Sometimes it works out.
Like today.
His tree is gorgeous.
Much of the garden is in bloom.
The staff and volunteers do a fantastic job and are almost too friendly. It felt rude to rush away as the gate keeper was a talker.
I took bunches of pictures to share with my husband. The trail would be more than he can manage but he likes to see what I see.

Common blue violet (ππͺπ°ππ’ π΄π°π³π°π³πͺπ’), from this morning's hike on the Wiley Trails:
Colors are coordinated.
Totally unlike my garden of haphazard planting of random and mismatched pots.
We both love our gardens and recognize that we approach our same hobby differently.
I brought her my compost buckets and recycling. At the same time I picked up the many packages of my husband's medical supplies that had been delivered to her house.
Our lives are greatly intertwined.
I wondered around her garden. It's not dahlia time yet but I found something to toot.

#Bloomscrolling in Mexico - south of CDMX in Morelos
Oh wow have not seen this tree and flower since India - a Gulmohar tree or Flame of the Forest.
#WesternTrillium.
This is an older Western trillium, in urban forest. They're usually all white. As they get older(takes many years), you'll see shades of pink & purple petals.
Please never disturb Western trilliums in the wild. They are extremely sensitive native plants & need to be left alone to visually admire. Western trillium takes up to 15 years to flower. Once it has been picked/heavily disturbed, it dies. Please leave them growing π

I imagine no one will be sad to hear that the flower folks at the farmers market were mostly selling ranunculus today.
So I crawl around under the deck while Summer watches.
Today while I was on the ground I looked up at these.
Wow!
Our red climbing rose is really taking off for the first time.

In the greenhouse today...
Mammillaria surculosa: the colour of the flowers matches their wonderful scent of lemons.
Mammillaria cobrensis: like many in this genus it produces a ring of flowers that continues in succession for many weeks.
