My Favorites THIS Month!

I'm not happy.  I can't hide it. I'm supposed to be showing all my June favorites, along with everyone else at Simply Susan's monthly meme, but I can't because some of them just didn't show up.  Actually NONE of my daylilies have bloomed. I was excited that I'd be able to share my Butterscotch daylily, as it was budding last week. When I checked it last night, it simply wasn't there. Vanished...without a trace.  Maybe the rabbit is the culprit?! I don't know.  This is what it looked like LAST YEAR. 


I expected to showcase the cool blue Lily of the Nile, but no.  IF it were in bloom, I'd show it here.

Enough pouting.  Let me show you my favorites that ARE in bloom!

The dwarf Powder Puff gets the 1st place award.  I love the soft little tufts!




And my new curbside prize bromelaid is sending up a trophy. 
She's thanking me for saving her from the dump. 




The new butterfly milkweed


The petite little Purple Queen is dainty and beautiful in a grouping.


And the yellow Bulbine displayed pretty yellow stalks for the first time.



My favorite crinums opened up this week too!


Blazing hot yellow Allamanda


And the multi-colored crotons are finally looking strong after a
slow recuperation from the winter cold.

A few additional faves that deserve the spotlight...




Thanks for joining me for my June favorites.  Until next time...!
