"All because it's June, June, June!"

That's the way the song ends, and fittingly, this is the end of the posts of the photos I took on Saturday.

I mentioned places to sit in our garden, where we could pause to enjoy what we have created. Now we'll swing down around the side of the house to the garden deck for a sit, and then up and around the front of the house.

 Tom found these plastic hanging plant tubes at a nursery a couple of years ago, with the idea of hanging them on the deck posts.  He planted up one last summer to try it out. Now he has all three planted, hanging, and with dripper tubes to each one. 

 So far they are looking quite nice. 

 Evergreen Pacific Coast iris. 

 The views from the deck, down below, and back up the path. 

 The rest of Tom's bonsai collection is here. 

 The native ferns and oxalis bubble up along the path by the house. 

 Up we go to the front of the house.

 Tom's fancy leaf geraniums (pelargoniums) are in place. 

 Plants blend under the full moon maple tree.

 Big shrubs were recently removed here and stuff from the yard sort of stuck in under the family room window. The echiverias are grown from offsets produced the year before and grown on in the greenhouse over the winter. 

 The golden hop vine is once again covering the gate.

 The tomatoes, in a heat trap on the east side of the house, are growing fast. 

This lovely long spur columbine seeded itself in the gravel 

 And back we are to where we started.

Cool nights and sunny afternoons continue. We might get a speck of rain in the next few days, but not much. After going into the city on the train for yet another appointment this morning, I am looking forward to spending some time in the yard this afternoon.

I do hope your June is busting out all over, too, in the most delightful way. I pray the awful storms are leaving you alone.
