Five on Friday

Linking up with Amy of Love Made My Home for Five on Friday this week. I'm so glad it's Friday! Our weather remains unsettled, but I've been spending all available sunny moments out in the gardens. June really is a great month for my perennials.

And since my garden is making me so very happy at this time of year, I'm of course going to share five things in the garden :) 

1. Peonies ... I have only one scented peony, and it is just now coming into bloom. It smells wonderful! And the blooms are that perfect frothy pink. Don't you find peonies are the most fascinating blooms when they start to unfurl?




My white peony in the front garden does amazingly well. It all falls onto my neighbour's side, so I hope they're enjoying the blooms!



2. It would appear some sort of caterpillar is eating its way through an unknown bush. The leaves are taking on a skeletal look, almost lace-like ... so that can't be all bad, can it?!


3. A fresh set of blooms on the dahlia ... such a bold flower :)


4. Love this fern and how those lines just draw you in.


5. My son's two clematis are doing great!




And that's my Five!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

  4. So beautiful! I do hope those pretty blooms are falling towards nice neighbors. :) Great shot of the chomped leaves. Those caterpillars have got to get their nutrition from someplace so they can move on to their next phase of life. Have a fab Friday. Tammy

  10. Breathtakingly beautiful Wendy!! Your peonies are Aahhh-mazing!! I think peonies have to be one of the prettiest flowers around. Like if they were all ladies at the ball, peony is definitely cinderella standing out above the rest.
    I love dahilia's too. They have such interesting geometry to their shape. Everything is beautiful and i'm so happy you shared it with us. ;)
    Happy weekend!! xoxo

  11. That dahlia is beautiful! I've never planted any but I think I may next year. My peonies are just past flowering now. I guess I'll have to look forward to next year's blooms - and enjoy yours, in the meantime! Have a great weekend!!

Looking down into the fern, the patterns that the petals of the dahlia make, stunning!!! The two clematis are beautiful as well, especially that dark red one!
