In honor of Freedom and the celebration of the U S Fourth of July these are pictures of red, white, and blue flowers in bloom today in the Jarvis House Garden.

True red can be found with a clump of Monarda blossoms.

Hydrangeas with their fluffy heads, bow under their own weight.

A Clematis is supported on a split rail fence,

and the Knock Out Roses try to recover from all the June rain.

The lightest pink approaches white on a volunteer wildflower.

True blue appears in this leftover Corn Flower.

Geraniums on the front porch.

A panicle of loose florets on an Oak Leaf Hydrangea.

Tradescantia, or Spiderwort in the shade.

It is hard to find a true red Day Lily, but several come very close.


White flowers of a ground cover that fill in the gap between tall grasses and a Hosta boarder.

Faithful Hydrangeas.

Trailing Roses.

A Hosta's white bells.

Ripening Blueberries.
