This is the first year I will have my own peonies. I have finally found the right spot in the garden for them to thrive. This one has a little green caterpillar hiding in a petal.
The UK name for these flowers is Hen and Chicks. At my grandmother's house in Wisconsin, we called them Indian Paintbrushes. I always think of Elcho when I see them in my garden.
The roses are doing well, but I see that I have to treat for blackspot again.
The foxgloves are looking particularly lovely.

I finally have the lawn that I have always wanted.
No mole damage, very few weeds and it has been dry enough to keep it mowed properly.  All organic too!!
I found this bumblebee walking across the floor in the house. It looked as if it were struggling.  I gave it some sugar solution and took it outside.  I love seeing it's little tongue.
