Here in Livonia Michigan US we are having a very different season than the usual. It seems to rain at least every other day here even through July 23. Really kind of nice, don’t have to be watering. (Usually we have a rather wet spring and then it rains a lot in the fall.) a great deal of the rain falls at night! Bev
Very informative, playback speed 1.5 keeps things moving.
Very useful video. Baptisma is a brilliant hardy plant but I find I have to stake it really well remembering it grows really tall.
Just discovered you on TH-cam. I just started reading because you were talking about the June gap. I’m in the USA in Zone 5 b central. Illinois. And yes, I do have a June gap. Because of our mild winter, my roses and irises, all bulbs and many other flowers were done by June and unfortunately I had a Garden walk in June.I keep wishing I could tell folks - come back in ----. People choose early June for Garden walks because the spring rains are over and the heat of July and August have not set in.
Some of your suggestions are ones I am going to try like that allium - I’ve heard about it but never realized its bloom time was later. I do want to see if the astrantia do well in our area - I hear so much about this flower from English gardeners. So thank you - it was a helpful video and I realized I was not the only one bummed out by my June gap.
Great vid. In Canada, and we have quite a bit flowering in June - hollyhock, mock orange, clematis, snapdragons, potentilla, lilies, geraniums, veronica, cupids dart, astrantia, astilbe, zinnia, lobelia, nigella, alyssum, cosmos, celosia... Some of my heuchera have pale pink and even bright pink blooms, and they've been flowering since spring.
Thanks I'm glad you like I do love Veronicastrum which I'm guessing is Cupid's dart in Canada. Zinnias and HollyHocks aren't quite open here yet well at least in Nottingham. All the rest you mentioned are flowering here though.
Much of June for me is foliage flop. If I had it to do over, I'd plant far fewer daffodils. My garden really comes into bloom in July with daylilies, geraniums and heliopsis.
New gardener here, southwest US, June might be a thing here too: only yarrows and gaillardias seem to be blooming this month, last month was very colorful... Also, thanks for mentioning roses, I have a pink rose that I actually rescued from a dumpster that has already flowered for weeks, great smell, and I know will go all summer. Thanks for the video!
You're welcome I'm glad you found it relevant in the SouthWest US! 😊
Great video Mike, many thanks for the info.
I’m in the Midwest US I don’t know if it’s a thing in the USA or just in my garden, which doesn’t have enough flowering in the beginning of June!
BUST THIS MYTH! great video!
No sun here in Washington state either until july 4th now have had 3 full days of sun and incidentally no spraying the last 3 days either.....
