The second week in June and the evenings are nonetheless fairly chilly. However the flowers are blooming and the bees are buzzing. Let’s get straight on with Six On Saturday.
Picture one is of those beautiful deep mauve (Or blue, or purple ) Anemones. My blended pack are actually actually flowering nicely. I simply must preserve the pigeons from dead-heading them, they particularly just like the pink ones.
Picture two is of the frothy Hawthorn flowers from a tiny bush within the entrance backyard. I attempted to take a close-up of the tiny flowers. They give the impression of being all spotty this shut up.
Subsequent up is what I believe is a Viburnum, though I’m not too positive. I’ve appeared it up towards the flowers and it’s my finest guess. I’m responsible of chopping this again in different years pondering it was a self-seeder, which it would nonetheless be because it’s so near a Cyprus that they vie for area.
Fourth picture is of the fragile pink tea rose which I cut up final yr and overwintered in a pot with violas. Initially the rose was given as a house-warming pot plant three years in the past and I’ve saved it alive. Each now are starting to placed on a great show with the violas coming again into flower after a feed..
Fifth picture is of one other plant that I’m guessing the number of – I believe this can be a Chinese language Privet. It hosts one of many Honeysuckles and each are actually in flower.
Lastly the fragile blue flowers of the Borage, one in every of my wild crops that I’ve grown from seed for the pollinators. The flowers look virtually bird-like with the centre seeming as if it’s the head and beak of the flying fowl.
