I thought I would post some pictures of my summer perennials that are just starting to bloom for this week's Show and Tell. "July is really dressed up and playing her tune" here!
This first picture is Monarda or Bee Balm. I call it my "4th of July flower", because every year, without fail, that's when it blooms.
In this next photo are some Black-eyed Susans and the taller purple flower is Gayfeather. I like combining round yellow flowers with spiky blue or purple flowers. The Susans started out as a small clump just a few years ago and they've really spread. They will continuously bloom through the summer and early fall.
And the flowers in this last photo are actually annuals, but the marigolds always reseed themselves in this container, so it's almost like they're perennials. I also have some type of spiky purple flower planted with them.(Sorry, can't remember their name)
Thank you for looking at my flowers, and thank you Kelli for hosting Show And Tell Friday.
