Wordless indeed! There ARE no words for these beauties! I’m weak in the knees looking at that pink iris, but they are all gorgeous. And congratulations on the shed, which looks so comfy there wearing its baskets and bench that you’d think it had been there forever. Happy June gardening to you, too, Judy!

I wish I could remember where I got that Iris, but I guess I can just admire it and and not worry about it. 🙂 The shed does look like it’s always been there, and my potting bench fit right on the side. I’m not sure how I managed without it. 🙂

Those beautiful blooms need no words. Their beauty speaks for them. Your new shed is a gem and is a perfect addition to your gardens. I’d be sitting on that bench with an iced tea admiring all the beauty I created. The shed door is the gateway to all things wonderful to maintain a garden. Thanks for sharing.

I must admit I love my shed, and it is so nice to have all the tools right where they are needed. Hubby built me a nice drop down table in there too so I really used that with seedlings on the way to the garden.

Those iris’ are really lovely. I planted some hostas that my BFF’s mom gave me out of her garden this past weekend. 🙂

I love that idea. 🙂 I checked them this morning. They’re doing good. I was a bit worried since it’s kind of a rocky area that I planted them in.
Her mom also told me how I can transplant my peonies so I’ll be doing that this year too.

Your flowers are beautiful, but I am calling the picture of your shed as my favorite today. The composition of the photo is perfect, and I love the little work station you’ve set up on the side.

Thank you. That potting table is a project you would appreciate. The base part was from a large work station a friend had in his basement. When he passed, his wife asked if we wanted it, and we were glad to take it. We cut the original in two, and gave one to our daughter. This one, my husband put on wheels, and added the back. I use it all gardening season and then usually roll it in the barn for the winter. I’m thinking I may put a cover on it this year and leave it in place. Bottom line, I love my shed and my potting table that has special memories.

It is just lovely to see such colour and summer flowers, not to mention your garden shed which looks great. Your pink Iris is such an eye-catcher, and not to mention your Day Lilies (that is what I would call them, I don’t know if I’ve got that right?).
Happy gardening, and I hope you are getting plenty of sunshine and rain.

Your are right. They are the first ones to bloom, and the rest aren’t even close. We had three days of rain which was much needed, and today we have sunshine. Nice balance.

Your potting shed is the sweetest little thing!…a cozy home in which to work, and rest while admiring the fruit of your labor.
I’m always surprised to see an entire palette of color splashed across the faces of the blooms you show us….poinsettias, in the past, for example. Your peach iris is new to me this time. I’ve only been familiar with purple/yellow and blue violet. But the yellow day lily…..we’ve got those gracing the edge of our woods. What a burst of sunshine amid an ocean of green on our wooded lot! As I recall, you’ve shown those beauties in an array of other colors, too. I once saw poppies in a catalog….blue! I wanted to buy a few plants, but knew they’d take one look at me and keel over! 🤪

That little yellow daylily is always the first one to pop. Poppies are so beautiful but a tiny bit challenging. I had a peach one for many years, and it died last year much to my dismay. I’ve bought a couple of new ones but so far no gorgeous peach. Thank you for the chuckle on the plant keeling over because there isn’t a gardener around who hasn’t had that happen numerous times. 🙂

Isn’t that the most gorgeous clematis ever? I have about eight clematis plants and most of them don’t like where they live. That one is in full sun the majority of the day, and is one happy camper. 🙂

My tomatoes are not looking good right now. It is new soil, we had that cold spell and then excessive heat so I’m not sure what the cause is, but they are not happy.

I think your peachy pink iris may be “Beverly Sills”, named after an American opera singer. I have it, too, and it’s blooming like crazy right now. I really love the one pictured below it – purply pink and yellow is such an interesting combo. And like everyone, I love your shed and potting bench.

Thank you for that info. I’m with you – I never know what it will look like. I spent an inordinate amount of time just trying to rearrange the photos. I do it on a laptop and use my phone as my research tool. LOL I’m hanging in there with the Editor, but once in a while like moving those photos around is not all that intuitive and I have to look it up. That pink iris is a beauty.

That table has seen more plants divided and potted up than I can count. I keep it painted with exterior paint, store it in the barn or cover it for the winter, and it serves me well. I’d highly recommend one.

I do envy the shed. I had a shed in my first BIG garden, but I was too busy with the actual garden and little children to use it and get it outfitted, and now 2 gardens later, I am relegated to a bench in the corner of the garage! So be it! I love yours!

I’ve wanted a shed for years, but never did anything about it. I think the aging process had a little to do with it. Life is short so why not, and having gardening tools in one place sure helps. 🙂
