Flowers from Summer 2013 — Daylilies, Coneflowers, and Color in the Garden
A look back at some of the flowers from summer 2013. I spent a fair amount of time out in the garden with the camera this year, and these are some of my favorites.
Bright yellow daylilies, purple coneflowers, and all sorts of color from the beds. A nice dose of summer to look back on. Here’s the gallery.








? When can you plant where you live?
I built a free little tool for exactly this question — The Garden Almanac. Type in your ZIP code and it gives you your USDA hardiness zone, your average last and first frost dates, and a planting calendar tuned to your spot — when to start seeds, set out transplants, and sow. It runs right in your browser, no account needed. Find your frost dates & planting calendar →
