Rainy Day. It's Monday.



It's raining. It's Monday. I'm not down. It's been too long since we've had rain. Right now, it's a nice gentle rain falling. It'll turn into storms before the afternoon is done. The line of storms is moving Northeast at a steady pace. I hope it rains all day. It's 77 degrees.



It always rains just as the peonies come into full bloom.



Mr. Lincoln is really impressing me this year. I had a few blooms like this last year, but only one at a time. I love this plant.



Massive.



Lagerfeld smells great. The pink coloring disappears as the blooms open to a silvery lavender.



The pink hybrid tea is impressive this year too.



My first strawberry.



Beans. I need to redo the teepee poles I set up for these. All of them are leaning due to high wind yesterday. I need to lash them together with some horizontal bamboo poles. I have plenty left.

Fragrances

Mr Lincoln, this morning.



Mr Lincoln, at lunch.



Context.



Karl Rosenfeld peony. Knockouts, Lagerfeld and Blue Girl in the background.



Lagerfeld.



Blue Girl.



Sweet Williams.



This is the "Orange Rose" purchased last year. The pink blooms come from one side of the plant. Orange blooms will appear later. Neither have a fragrance. It might be moved if I find a suitable reblooming fragrant replacement.



It's 82 degrees. My scalp is fried.
