Jean's Foxglove & Asiatics Begin to Bloom

I have to show you the foxglove that Jean sent me. She sent me some seeds two years ago. I am a sad sower of seeds, but I did manage to get three of these to bloom, though they are way shorter than they should be. I attribute that to my
'have-shovel-will-move' gardening attitude. I moved them this spring and probably stunted their growth.

I am just happy they flowered and I am making sure to let them seed so I can get more of them. Thanks, again, Jean. It is fun to have something growing from your New York garden!

The bright magenta flower behind the foxglove is Lychnis Coronaria, also known as Rose Campion. Here is a better pic of it behind some silver artemesia:



Here is my first Tango lily --'Capuchino'. I planted 3 new varities this year and can't wait to see the colors.

I don't remember the name of this orange Asiatic, which looks similar to the Tangos.

Here is the Easter lily that once graced my dining table. This one is not an Asiatic. I love the big white trumpet buds. It's been coming back for quite a few years.
