It's June and we have some fruits developing on our haskaps and strawberries; I think something has gotten to our serviceberries and plums though (curculio maybe). And so many more flowers!

Geraniums, Spurge, Lily of the Valley, and tricolor Willow:

Blackberries and Irises:

Rhododendron with a solitary bee:

Some of the weeds have been going haam too; I think I removed about 2 miles of Asiatic Bittersweet (Celastrus orbiculatus) yesterday just from one garden area.

What's growing on with you all?

Been falling way behind with gardening because of our full only-thing-standing-is-walls renovation + upkeep of around 50 small trees and a few hedges, but my mother in law came over and weeded all of the overgrown plant beds from the previous owner and planted some tomatoes, pumpkins, and courgette. 😁

What a nice thing for her to do! Here's hoping your reno goes smoothly enough for you to have time to enjoy the fruits of her labors
