Flowers don’t freak out…

Flowers don't freak out if you get close, thankfully. I like the three plants together in the first photo, pale purple culver's root, pink-purple tall garden phlox, white cimcifuga, all framed by the peony support.

One stargazer lily has bloomed -- I thought I planted a lot more of them, but only one seems to have come up. Must plant more.

Tall garden phlox plant is getting nice and big.

Cimcifuga volunteer is getting huge. I like it a lot, with its big feathery white plumes, but I hope it doesn't spread -- it would take over my yard.
