Well, here we are at the beginning of August and the garden continues to put out an ever-changing array of flowers and foliage. I've been riding my bike through the neighbourhood and am seeing gorgeous clumps of lilies blooming in gardens everywhere. It makes me want to buy more of my own. I just can't seem to get enough of them. Which is one reason I've got so many pictures of them here!
Country Dancer rose, new this summer
Morden Belle rose
The hostas are blooming too, including this giant Sum and Substance. I don't actually grow hostas for the flowers; the foliage is stunning enough without blooms.
The Juliet cherries are ripe!
A pot of petunias, Calibrachoa (million bells) and Angelina sedum, but the petunias are so vigorous they're basically all you can see

The lilies do look beautiful, Barb! I love the petunias and your arrangements in the shade pots on the deck as well.
