Photos of flowers blooming in my Toronto garden in the middle of July (July 14th 2011). Everything from Daylilies to cleomes to butterfly weed to antique roses, lavender and many other flowers.

This vibrant roser is known for an intoxicating old-rose perfume so luxurious that a single flower can scent a whole room!

The recipe is from Fuchsia Dunlop's book Every Grain Of Rice

The recipe is on my blog, here

This plant was destroyed in the disastrous hailstorm of 2007. I was so delighted to see the first flower on this revived plant yesterday! It is a breathtaking sight and the heady fragrance uplifts my spirits.

Fragrant Yeiiow Bearded Iris

My neighbors mock orange is blooming and it;s scent is delicate, lightly orange and heavenly. It'd been hard to shoot on such a breezey day but I nailed this one.

FJ candles are really great. They burn long and clean, they’re nicely fragrances, and the jars they come in are often nice enough to clean out and keep after the candle is gone. So far I’ve only been disappointed by one fragrance (the vanilla-scented candle from the Peaches & Cream set is just not my thing, and it is SO smelly).

Phlox is one of my favorite garden plants. Flowers are so, very fragrant.

There seems to be an abundance of orchids about at the moment so I can't resist the opportunity to get a few shots. I think I've got the ID right.

I first saw this purple flowered raspberry growing in the mountains of Pennsylvania along the bike trail. Unlike most brambles, it has no thorns and grows in shady, damp places. I planted this in the July section of the Calendar Garden where it soon spread everywhere and was very hard to eradicate. It now is outside the fence in a shady area where it is thriving but can't choke out other plants. I almost never see berries but they do occasionally bear them. If you would like a start, this is a nice native plant and we can spare some roots, but be careful where you put it! As you see, the flowers are quite pretty.
