The Canadian Tiger Swallowtails love the lilies. Most days there are several flitting and gliding around.

The double white clematis beside the trellis on the secret garden path is in its third year now, and is finally acting like clematis should.

The red bee balm is sort of cross between a flower and a weed--it’s so prolific and trouble free and it spreads wildly. I like it so much I planted a pink version on the pasture fence. It’s just a single plant this year, but next year it should be a whole stand.
