Floral Interest
Through the Season
Early
June begins
with bulbs emerging, Trollius and Primulas coming into
bloom
and peonies
appearing. The Garden is just waking up from a
long winter
sleep. The
Rock Garden and Wildflower Trail are at their
best through June.
In
early July, the Garden is in full swing with Peonies,
Delphinium, Clematis,
Columbine, and the famous Meconopsis, the Himalayan
Blue Poppy. The
Entry
Beds are a vibrant glimpse at "An Alaskan Kitchen Garden".
The Garden is ever changing
and by the end of July the Ligularia, Nepeta, Lilies,
Roses, and Hostas
are in their full glory. The Herb Garden is at its best
through July
and
August.
In
August the Thalictrum
begin to take over the show, but are still
accompanied by
the Hostas,
Aconitum, Veronicastum and Geraniums.
The Herb Garden is full of
culinary
scent and has an impressive Kiwi Vine. |
