Garden Blogger's Bloom Day - June 07

I'm so slack with participating in Bloom Days and Green Thumb Sunday etc, but I like this idea from Carol. And as my blog is a pseudo gardening journal for me, it's a great place to store what's going on in my garden.

However, there's not much going on at the moment. Certainly not in my garden anyway.

The natives are all gearing up to flower so I should have something for next month but for June all I have to offer is a few rogue Artoctis sp. flowers. They seem to defy the cold and balk at any reason why they might want to lay low for a few months and merrily flower along. Which is great for me because I have something to contribute.

Anyway, here they are for you to admire as much as I am at the moment.

They are so cheery they make a bleary day giggle like a schoolgirl. Until next month....

I've never heard of Artoctis before...I'm so glad you participated in GBBD this month. Very cheerful, vibrant blooms...if you can only have on thing in bloom right now, this seems to be a good thing to have :-)
