What's Bloomin'

[heirloomgal]

The cornflowers found some friends...

I think this is mom, dad and a little one on the way.

Tree peony this morning...

Tree peony this afternoon... (sorry! don't know how to flip the image!)

Gifted to me from my neighbour about 4 years ago...

Wish I could remember what kind of columbine this was, planted it years ago.

The Hosta is stunning. The little purple flower ground cover looks like Creeping Charlie. Cute little bloom VERY ENVASIVE weed here.

i'm not sure it's the same thing or not, but if it is indeed Creeping Charlie it's a lot of fun to remove by hand.

Thankfully, Creeping Charlie is Glechoma hederacea and Ajuga is Ajuga reptans so it's not the same plant, but ajuga is in the mint family so it can spread. I had planted it in my front garden years ago, and it was too low growing, so I pulled it all out and never thought about it again until I found that patch. I've thought a few times to start a thread called Never Plant This, because there is a few I've put in that I regret now, if only I had known...lol
Mint, magenta spreen (it NEVER goes away!) come to mind. I love mint as a tea, but it hasn't been worth the often lost struggle to control it.

I saw this lovely flower downtown today. Not sure what it is but it's just gorgeous!
