Waited 3 years to see these boom, finally they did, and I don't like them! They all face the ground!

The bee balm is all over the front and back and around the garden. I am going to spread seeds this fall all over. The hollyhocks are in the old herb garden where it just went to weeds and I never get enough water over there, but I decided to pull all the weeds and I planted all my flowers that I had started and I have been watering a lot, and the hollyhocks came to life.

Yes, commonly called Blackberry lily to Toad lily.

I thought it looked familiar, I've planted that one twice in my garden, and it's never grown. So pretty! Maybe our winters are just too cold, or my bulbs were not fresh. Bulbs are really hit and miss I find. Bought a bag of freesia bulbs that looked perfect this year, not a single one sprouted!
