June Buds

I think people who report a lack of bees in their yards should plant more clover in their lawns. That's where I see all the bees. And then I went and cut it all down last night. Ah, well.

Milkweed is in bud. So, is the beebalm. Evening primrose is just about done, but the black-eyed susans that are intersperced with the primrose is about to bloom. The hostas have their shoots up. Buds have not yet put in an appearance, but it is only a matter of time with the flower stalks up.

Sluggo seems to be working. The petunias that were eaten down to the nubs are showing signs of leaf growth.
