Our #clematis vines are really taking off and starting to bloom. I planted them last year but they were very much underachievers, maybe because of our long hot summer, and after our one hard freeze this winter I thought they might be dead, but definitely not. This variety is called John Paul II 🤷‍♂️.

My ground phlox (possibly Phlox subulata/moss phlox) has achieved blanket status.

I'm a sucker for mass blooms. A friend of mine has large swaths of this phlox & was kind enough to borrow me a cup 2 yrs ago. A cup that was 1.5' x 2' chunk that I then plopped down in a 1.5' x 2' space.

Easy peasy phlox carpet squee-sy.

Photograph of a mass bloom of purple ground phlox (moss phlox seems likely). This variety of phlox is low to the ground and slowly "creeps" along the ground. The plant has moss-like foliage. The flowers have five, heart-shaped, pale purple feathers that radiate from a narrow central cone. Each petal has two, small, purple dots where the bloom meets the central cone. Two orange anthers are visible in the center of the cone while the other reproductive organs are interior to the cone.

Our other clematis vine is doing well & blooming like crazy. Didn’t even notice the caterpillar till I was looking at the photos later. Everything in the #garden does great here until about June when the blast furnace heat arrives.

This is the 2nd summer for my purple coneflowers. Last year it was about a 1/3 the size and this year is has already put on more blooms than all of last year.

Purple coneflower is a favorite of mine and a friend was kind enough to let me pull some out of his garden two years ago. That's my favorite way to garden: cheap/free and an early reward 👍.

Photograph of a group of purple coneflower flowers and flower buds with out of focus green foliage and a grey and brown wall in the background. Purple coneflower (Genus: Echinacea) is a member of the Asteraceae family and have the typical flower shape of that family with long petals that radiate from a center filled with florets. The petals are a pink-purple. The florets are green near the center and are surrounded by red-orange florets that are surrounded by a yellow ring of exposed pollen at the top of each floret which is surrounded by another ring of red and green florets with yellow pollen at their tops.

“…minimalism is a type of photography that gives us a break from the visual frenzy and chaotic pace of life. We are bombarded with visual stimulation every moment of the day. We need to really slow down, and just focus on a few simple things.
The focus of minimalist photography is on stillness, quiet, and seeing creatively.”
