It getting close to summertime so the gardens are flourishing with spring color.
This little plot around some of my favorite birches, is a treasure trove of Siberian Iris.
Someone has a couple of pots of tomatoes this year. Whenever I go past them, I shake the limbs a bit so the pollen can distribute to make more tomatoes.

Here is the other plot of garden on the other side of the pathway.
A closer view of the little flowers.
I love Iris, even Siberian Iris and these dark purples are lovely today.
As for white Iris, what could be more beautiful on a summer's day. As you can see in the background, our wild rose border along the dirt roadway is also blooming in its lovely shade of pink.
The Ascot Races from England ran today. They are ahead of us in time so they are already finished, but I recorded them so I could watch them this afternoon. Its four and a half hours of racing for me for the afternoon.
What color will the Queen be wearing today?
My guess is turquoise. They bet on that as well as the horses. Imagine at her age getting out and about for the Ascot races all week long. I hope I have some of her energy in my 90s. I just love the scenery at Ascot and the dresses and flowery hats on the ladies and the tall silk hats on the gentlemen in their formal dresswear. Its a glorious day to be out and about.
Have a good day.
