“What is one to say about June, the time of perfect young summer, the fulfilment of the promise of the earlier months, and with as yet no sign to remind one that its fresh young beauty will ever fade.”
— from ‘On Gardening’ by Gertrude Jekyll (1843–1932) #FlowersOnFriday
ALT Nine-panel collage of June garden flowers. Clockwise from top left: a pink peony with golden stamens, a cluster of white ox-eye daisies, an apricot rose, violet-blue hardy geraniums, a close-up of pale pink astrantia, pink carnations, a white peony with blush-pink outer petals, a soft pink rose, and a drift of pale pink astrantia among purple salvia spikes. All are photographed against fresh green summer foliage.

“Barnaby bright, Barnaby bright;
Longest day and shortest night”
St. Barnabas’ Day, 11 June, coincides with the summer solstice in the Old Style calendar. St. Barnabas is a saint invoked to bring peace. His flower is the ‘Midsummer Daisy’, the ox-eye daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare)
ALT Ox-eye daisies flowering among tall meadow grasses in summer. White petals surround golden-yellow centres, with open blooms and rounded buds scattered through a softly blurred green background.
