Took some pics of my garden today. The Johnson's Blues are just starting to bloom. Old fashioned bleeding hearts are done, but the fringed leaved bleeding hearts are still going. Columbine is going strong. Veronica "Goodness Grows" is in bloom. Allium "purple sensation" is starting to go to seed, but my giant alliums are in full bloom. I have one lupine blooming, but it's a lot shorter than I expected, and is hiding behind other perennials. I'm thinking about removing my echinacea, b/c I think it's making things look too messy (I love the cottage garden look, but I like it to have a little bit of neatness to it), and replacing it with some annuals with daisy-like flowers: maybe osteospermum or argyrathemum frutescens. Any suggestions?
