Lots of pretty things are blooming in the garden. An important part of vegetable gardening is having some flowers to attract bees, butterflies & ladybugs. Right now my garden is exploding with flowers of all colors: black, purple, pink, red, yellow, orange, and hopefully some green zinnias soon! Check out the pics below for a small sampling of the June Blooms in my garden:
Pictured Above: Lavender
Pictured Above: Marigolds
Pictured Above: Geraniums
Pictured Above: Zinnia
Pictured Above: English Daisy
Pictured Above: Arugula Flowers
Pictured Above: Bachelor's Button
Pictured Above: Black Viola
Many of these are edible (viola, bachelor's button, arugula flowers) and some are just summer garden staples, (geraniums & zinnia.) I love having flowers throughout the garden. The viola are shade dwellers, while the lavender soaks up the summer sun.
What is your favorite garden bloom?
