Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day--July

What starts as white and turns purple, blue, green, yellow, orange and red? If you answered a prism, you are right, but my garden was white six months ago and is now purple, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. Here is a sampling of what another Bloom Day brings.

First some whites:




















































Then some purples:





































































There are lots of blues in my garden:





































































The greens are in all the pictures. The yellows are a nice counterpoint to the blues:




















































Oranges are well-represented also. Remember these blooms are spread over several acres.





































































Not many true reds, but I'm counting this tiny allium.

Several acres? How pretty it all is! Thanks for participating in garden bloggers' bloom day. I liked seeing the flowers grouped by colors.

Martha, I think you need some red bee balm, some red zinnias, or maybe even some red salvia! Otherwise, I think you've done a great job of filling out the spectrum,
