Bed E Square 2018

Nestled between the East Side and the Driveway is a block bed that I have creatively designated Bed E square.  It is square--and is on the east side of the driveway.  Is that a good excuse for my lack of creative naming?  Things start blooming here--inside and out--in March with a crocus or two.  The last blooms--in June and early July--are the lilies outside the bed and a huge queen of the prairie on the inside.  In-between there are some daffodils in late April, a wild geranium in early May, two iris in late May and two Siberian iris in late May as well.  The German iris are a mango and an orange variety.  The two Siberian beauties are dark purplish blue.  It is a nice contrast.  The lilies are a variety of colors, and the queen is pink--and tall.  A lovely dianthus resides here as well.  All in all, it's a lovely little island of beauty.  And not all the iris in here have bloomed yet!  Could be even better!  Oh, a bunch of cosmos comes back every year outside of this bed.
