New Zealand impatiens
The color of June at my house, this year, is PINK. My son is getting married here next month, and his bride’s favorite color is purple. We started looking for purple flowers, and there aren’t many.
Double impatience!
So we’ve gone with hot pinks, pale pinks and white. The gardens looks so pretty, especially after the last few years where they’ve gotten so little attention.

The wedding will be small (intimate!), casual, and that’s totally in keeping with the happy couple. Two more laid-back people, I can’t imagine. We’ll celebrate, then they’re driving to Colorado where Sean is interning on an organic farm.

He’s a chef, and I couldn’t resist bringing a little “spice” to the party, with these dish gardens. They smell wonderful, too.
Pink and white dahlias
I’m a little bit frazzled, thinking about getting this little party together. Not as much as Paul, who’s in the middle of drywalling the downstairs bath (after discovering a leak, and extensive water damage, inside the wall). But we’ll get it together, and it’ll be magic.
