What's Fresh June 18, 2012

It is "perennial time" on the farm and that means that we are running in an attempt to keep up with all the perennials blooming.  For months these work horse plants have been storing energy for the big show--and it is happening now.  Some of the first perennials to bloom are the peonies.  RT has been cutting peonies every four hours for weeks and will finish soon...just in time for the other perennials to kick in.




(Notice the cute jar--yep, we painted it.)

So the list of perennials begins:


Baptisia


Foxtail Lily


Foxglove, actually a bi-ennial.


Oriental poppies and delphinium.



Bellflower lavender


Bellflower white


Bells of Ireland


Delphinium--deep violet to white and all shades in between


Peonies


Deep pink


Soft Pink "Sarah Bernhardt"


White

Snaps white


Snaps burgundy


Silver King


Scabiosa white
