Turk's Cap is just beginning to bloom.

I bought this Lantana a few months ago.

My Phlox plants are near the end of their bloom time, but still pretty.

There are still a few blooms on the Dianthus plants.

The Peace Lilies on my front porch rail are full of blooms.

The Butterflies are loving my Butterfly Bush, Buddleia!

And the Encore Azalea is attracting the Butterflies, too.

After walking all around the yard taking photos, I noticed something orange high up in a tree at the edge of our woods. A Trumpet Creeper, Campsis radicans, a native wildflower vine!

Happy Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!

I hope you have a Wonderful Week!
