When they begin to bloom the Pacifica peonies are almost blowsy.
By contrast, while the daylilies bloom even more profusely, they hide their blooms as deep down inside their own foliage as they can.
And at long last, the monkshood are throwing out a few blooms. They seem kind of doubtful about the whole thing, as those flowering stalks are usually a lot taller and much more numerous. It’s been a different kind of year #inmygarden.
