Maz - OH - I forgot that! I didn't remember you were in zone 3a. That does limit your choices. Have you visited the Rose forum? I know there are a couple of gardeners there who are growing roses in the colder zones. Sheila something? and maybe Rosecanadian? I'm not positive, but even posting a thread about best roses for zone 3 might bring these growers into a discussion.

Linda, congrats on finding a house and getting yours on the market. Busy times. I envy your proximity to your grands. Everyone here sounds busy. And why are all the AC units going on the fritz? Ours on our boat can't begin to keep up with this heat - and of course we have no shade. Came back to boat last evening and it was 87 in our main salon. So I've been going over to my moms house to sew in her guest room. Spent a few hours yesterday cutting and bagging up the fabrics for Carol Doak's Mariners Compass Star blocks. I've got less than half done on that. Today I'll go back there and try to find bottom on one of my bins of stuff, to find a whole cloth quilt that is already marked and ready to go. I'm going to machine quilt it for a friends baby shower. Left it to the last minute... If I get that done and still have time energy I'll get a couple of bird houses done. They are so cute. VF, what a nice vase & flower for your friend. Our house is within 2-3 weeks of being finished. I can't wait to move into my own sewing room! Then I swear I'm going to be making draperies for months. Friday I went to a workshop on crazy quilting. The project was a needlebook. I Love mine. It's the best project I think I've done in a workshop. Have lots of hand embellishment left to do, then assemble it. I used silk dupioni's in yellows oranges and reds. Marjorie

Deanna - I’ve been surprised that Hostas come in so many sizes. I have some that never grow larger than 12 inches around. Some of the big ones - ‘Sagae’ and ‘Krossa Regal’ haven’t stopped increasing in size yet, five years after planting. I have a ‘June’ that has been in the ground since 2008 and it’s very large now but not as large as the larger varieties and I only divided it once 2 years ago. I just took out a pie shaped wedge and left the rest and it’s filled into a perfect circle again already. I love the large sizes and if they are sited well, you can just keep them there and never have to divide them. That is my limited experience. I wish my Rose corner was in sight of a window, but it is near the gate by the garage that can’t be seen from the house at all. The back of my house faces trees, shade and part shade. The front windows look out on the full sun bed with the other roses in it. Oh well, I’m out there every day any way and purposely walk past the garage rose corner, multiple times a day in June. I’m seeing that the bloom lasts the whole month! And is still a little fragrant which is all from the New Dawn right now. I’ve just started deadheading it which I’ve never done before to see if I will get rebloom on New Dawn, which I’ve only now learned it does do. Dee, Your foxglove is not a biennial? I didn't know there was such a thing. You have the same plants come back and bloom every season? With reseeding, I am getting a ton of Penstemon ‘Dark Towers’ I let them sprout at the beginning of the season and just pull them out where I don’t want them. I always have to weed the whole bed they are in at some point in the season and once I have everything where I want it, I mulch. I’m loving the babies of my Penstemon. Even though it is a named variety, I get both, solid green plants that are taller that must revert back to a parent plant and plants that are almost replicas of the dark foliage. Some plants are so vigorous and shapely, some a little shorter and compact. My problem is I love the seed heads and I usually leave them on all season and I haven’t wanted to limit the reseeding until this year. I’m looking at how many I have and I think I’ve reached the point where I have to start deadheading before they reseed. I'm having a lull in the garden right now. Roses are finishing their first flush, Penstemon is showing seedheads, Dianthus is just starting to bloom and with deadheading that will last awhile. But I see Monarda just opening and Lilies getting ready to. After that I'm waiting for Hibiscus and Hydrangea. Cosmos, Dill and Cleome are filling in and not really blooming yet either. And hopefully I will get another flush of bloom on the roses out front.

Lynn, the past two years my neighbor and I have been gardening together, we have two very different ideas about gardening. I like organic matter, he likes chemicals. At this point I can do the gardening in the wildlife garden without him, so I sorta go along with what he wants. I don't mind a few chemicals, but I value organic matter very highly.. At this point I cant get enough organic matter for the wildlife garden anyway, but I think we are going to do more cover crops, or part ways. Last year we used turnips as a cover crop, which worked out for both of us, although they are not my first choice. Neighbor was able to sell turnips for $1.00 a pound, and the greens for $20.00 a bushel, and still had a good supply of organic matter to till into the soil. I can see you wanting a cover crop, or adding compost every year, that is what I do in my two home gardens, and trying to work toward that in the wildlife garden, but my goal there is a little different. I just pulled out a soil test that I had done in 2020, I had forgotten about that test. Arkansas has changed their test a little, but it is still enough like the old test that I can compare. The last test was of the north garden only, because I had peppers doing less than I wanted. My guess is that the peppers may have had a disease or too much nitrogen. I have not planted that area yet this year. The test does not show nitrogen, but PH is 6.6 Phosphorus was 158 optimum is 36 to 50 PPM potassium was 224 optimum is 131 to 175 PPM zinc was 21.9 optimum is 4.1 to 8 PPM These three elements are the ones that are most out of whack, but I still grow some vegetables very well. I tried growing corn to try to lower these elements, which seemed to help, but really all I was doing was feeding critters. Every critter in the country will stand in line to eat your corn. The notes on the test still stated 2 lbs of urea, and no legumes. I dont understand most of the stuff on the test, but I think that the garden being too wet early in the year causes me most of my problems.

So far, we missed the 100-degree day. Everyone around us was sitting at 100, but we're still at 99. I will be going outdoors in about an hour to water. This morning I did get out and spread some cottonseed hull around the flowerbeds. The chickens are surviving. They have fans in their coop overnight. It's still hot in the coop, but it does give them a little relief. There's a young guy (21 and actually graduated with Ethan) who owns a house in our neighborhood. He is on his second round of chickens. His dog killed the first ones. I'm afraid that the heat took his second flock. I almost called him to suggest that he put tarps or something on his pen. I have 2 broody hens still in one of the little pens (I think their broodiness is broken and they will be going back to the main coop tonight) and the "bad hen" coop normally houses Maizey during part of the day. they both have tarps and roofs. The heat is harder on them than the cold. As far as the garden goes, it always looks rough with this type of heat, which you all know. Maybe we'll get some more fruit set on the tomatoes in the next few days after the "cold front" comes through. Rick and I shucked our second batch of corn. I just blanched my share and put it in the freezer. I did the first batch yesterday, I think. And cleaned up some carrots and got those ready to use. They won't last long--people like carrots around here. The Persian cukes are doing so well. I highly recommend them. The harlequin bugs have moved to them, so handpicking has become a daily chore. The tomatoes are slowly coming in. I'll edit this with a picture. I'm collecting the Jets to do a batch of diced tomatoes. I'll do small batches as they come in. I've been picking them when their color breaks. The Kitchen Aid is about to go to the shop to make room for the tomatoes. I won't be baking until October anyways. There's a second batch of kraut going now. And as soon as I collect a few more of the Persian cukes, I'll start a batch of fermented pickles in the crock. Has anyone used Pickle Pipes? They're very easy to use, but the top of the kraut is browning a bit. Not mold at all....just browning. I did overfill the jars and once the cabbage started fermenting, the jars overflowed. I dumped out a bit of the juice, so I wonder if that is what the issue is. They have glass weights on top. Next, I want to try some fermented peppers. After watering, there's a bit of a harvest to do. Then we'll probably walk Josi at twilight. Blue Wild Indigo. I bought one of those at the pollinator event on Solstice. It will be planted behind the shop hopefully tomorrow. I'm noticing bite marks out of our okra plants. Maybe it's the bunnies. Time to gear up (hat, Farmer's Defense sleeves, proper shoes) and go water.

rouge to say that your edging of Little Treasure worked out well would be beyond an under statement. Everything looks great! Every plant you post is drool worthy.

GardenHo just lovely. So happy to see you posting, I was ready to send out a search party. That Dappled Willow is wonderful.

Very nice mxk. Some plants do seem earlier or later than usual this year.

prairiemoon everything looks wonderful but I am swooning over Julia Child.

Heruga you were very successful with your Campanula and they do look good. I just hope you are able to keep them under control. Be sure to deadhead because it is not only the runners that are a problem. I am still battling them.

Mazerolm just wonderful. Good things come to those of us who have to wait.

Peren.all, Julia is just starting and was unphased by 2 inches of rain we had. Best it’s looked of any season I’ve had it. A rose anyone can grow with a good amount of sun. It has a lot of bud groupings that will extend the bloom time and will also get a second flush later on.

'New Dawn' is just starting...

That is one huge Baptisia you have there - it’s gorgeous! I have one in afternoon sun only and it’s spindly in comparison. I am in love with your Dictamnus! I’ve always wanted to grow that and I guess I just don’t see it offered very often.

Look at all those Lupine! Wonderful! Now will those reseed for you and do the original plants come back too? They make a nice combination with the variegated Hosta. Thanks for the extra photo!

We only have a few small roses here but those Julia Child ones are tempting! (especially since we all like to cook and have some of her old cookbooks that DH's mother bought many years ago....!)

June is peony month here but things are late and just getting started in bloom now so no pictures of those yet.

We're still a lot focused on the backyard and changes relating to the removal of the ash tree. For the first time ever I found a tomato 'weed' seedling in a bed near the patio :-) I assume it was from the cherry tomatoes grown in pots on the driveway in the front garden last year. I assume its presence in the backyard says something about more light there now :-) The next small project that will affect things growing in the beds there is to remove some branches in the bottom 20' or so of the white pine tree. The lowest branches started drooping a year or so ago and are affecting tallish shrubs and perennials under them. I'm waiting to hear back from the tree people who took down the ash to see how much it will cost to remove the lower pine branches.

In the pictures I had posted when the back lawn was being re-sodded, the fringetree on the patio was looking a bit dead. It is now in full leaf and bloom. It is one of my favorite trees! It is blooming with the neighbour's beautiful dogwood and our 'Milky Way' dogwood flowers are just starting to show signs of blooming.

The north alley is looking much as it usually does at this time of years, although the clematises on the fence are way behind in growth this year! The white corydalis that Rouge mentioned is in peak bloom on the house side.

June has so many things growing on in the garden that it is hard to keep up! I love June!

Some pictures:

The fringetree and and some other stuff visible from the back porch (you can see the branches that need removing from the white pine on the west side of the lawn):

June is my favorite month too. Woody I am a little disoriented looking at your photos of your yard. I'm thinking maybe it's the loss of the Ash? And you used to have a hanging chain that you trained roses or clematis on, in one of your side yards? Then there was a special gate? Love the white Corydalis!

prairiemoon the original Lupines come back plus they reseed. I invariably miss cutting back some of the seed pods that get hidden by other foliage. I enjoy them so much!

woody I agree that white Corydalis is lovely. My Astilboides is very happy with all this rain we have been having. The row you have is very handsome.

prairiemoon - yeah, the removal of the ash tree has certainly taken away a reference point for the garden! And, as hot weather approaches, it’s going to be interesting to see what effect the absence of the shade it provided for the house will have on cooling costs and our use of the back porch in the afternoon and evening! The fringetree is big enough now that it should help a bit at blocking the sun from the west so we still get some shade on the porch in the afternoon. Maybe…..

We did used to have a swag chain in the south alley when we had a New Dawn rose there growing with clematises on the south gate arbour. The rose was beautiful - but those thorns were dangerous! We dug our the rose and took down the swag years ago now. We also took out shrubs and some very vigorous clematises there. It’s mostly low growing stuff there now and we’re still waiting for one clematis to recover from a move and grow up to cover the gate arbour. It is sure taking a long time to do so! When our 90+ year-old neighbour on that side eventually dies, we expect the house will be knocked down and replaced by somenthing big so the conditions in the south alley may change dramatically soon so we’re not doing much in that area until we see what happens next door.

peren.all - we haven’t had a lot if rain - we’re actually 3” short of our average spring rainfall! But, those astilboides grow near where a downspout from the roof delivers water to them :-) It’s also been cooler than usual so that seems to have helped compensate for less rain.

I really like the white corydalis too and we have it in various places in the back yard. it goes well with the green-and-white theme there :-) The neighbour to the north has some of the yellow type that sometimes appears in our north alley. i rip out any I see as it would overwhelm the white stuff we have.

Peren.all - I wonder if other nursery owners enjoy their garden as much as you do!! I think you do a great job.

Woody, that's what I am dealing with right now, the plans of neighbors. We have one neighbor whose property is visible from the back of our house through a post and rail fence and in Sept they are planning to put a large addition extending into the area we view. There is a mature Maple in that corner but the borrowed view of their grassy lawn and trees will not be what we are looking at any more along some of that lot line. That is pretty much all shade with a little morning sun, so not as easy to add material that will quickly grow as a screen.

Another neighbor seems to be getting their house ready for sale, and they are empty nesters, and so many houses in our neighborhood have been knocked down and large houses built that we think it's prudent to start planning for that eventuality. All the screen we have now on that lot line, is in their yard and could be removed. So, I'm planning to put a hedgerow along that lot line instead of the perennials and shrubs I have there now. Not tall enough.

Rouge, I do love that photo with the Hosta and Corydalis!

Loving all the colors here, I agree June is probably favorite month with all the flowers. Here is my dracocephalum argunense. Some of you may recognize I post this plant every year in rouges monthly thread but this time it’s my first seed grown, first flowering dracocephalum(Grew and planted last year). Ever since I randomly came across this plant in diggingdog nursery and ordered it in 2017, I fell in love with it and I strongly decided I would grow these from seed one day. I failed for 3 years but this time I finally got it to grow!

Here is my dracocephalum argunense.

@Heruga (7a Northern NJ) you have me intrigued as I don't believe I know this plant and it looks like it could be a worthwhile addition to our garden as I like the blue flowers and its compact size.

Can you tell me a bit more about it? How large does it get? How hardy do you think it is? When does it begin to bloom and how long is it in flower?

@peren.all Zone 5a Ontario Canada have you seen this plant at ON nurseries?
Heruga (7a Northern NJ)
last year
These are lovely underused plants probably because it’s not the most available. They can get surprisingly large even though websites state 1.5 ft as mature height. They are already 2 ft wide at just 1 year old so imagine how big it would get in decades as this is supposedly a very long lived perennial. You can’t divide these either as they grow from a single crown so I would give them free space to grow forever. I always had this plant listed as hardy to zone 4b in my excel spreadsheet so they will definitley grow in your zone. It starts budding in May and peaks in June and stays blooming into July(somewhat sporadically) That is my experience with my previous dracocephalums I bought from the nursery but I will monitor what my seed grown ones do. Overall a great addition to any garden but does not possess the ’flowering all summer-long’ trait. Deadheading may promote additional blooms but I left them so seeds can mature so I can harvest them.

Woody - love your north alley, especially the astilboides! Have you ever tried growing it from seed? I have a reasonably-sized clump, but would like to have a backup. It has quite a few flower stalks this year, so I thought I might see if I get any viable seeds and give it a try.
