And the blooming begins

Well, there were blooms earlier, with the daffodils and the crocuses, but now it's June, and the summer blooms are starting to come out. Like the roses:

The first rose of summer

And the columbine:

The columbine plants haven't looked that healthy in a couple of years.

And of course, there's the rhododendron:

It's got so many blossoms on it, it looks like a giant green and pink powder-puff. And they're still not all open!

Here's a bonus shot, of a bee making the most of the blossoms:

Bee-ware!

I like the columbines best. They're all gorgeous though :-) We've got water forgetmenots at the mo, and jasmine, and the bottle brush is flowering hugely.
