A little bummed I was away for the peak of the wild poppy bloom this year. If the volunteers at my parents' place are anything to go by, it was a hell of a year.

It's past the spring peak for my parents' garden in general, but there's still some color to be found. My mom's outdoor orchids in particular are very happy right now, and the nasturtiums are running riot as usual. The star jasmine hasn't exploded yet, but it won't be long!

The wet weather lately has been very good for my mother's sweet peas - this is the biggest I've ever seen them by a long shot! I'm glad they're still up and going, they're one of my favorite floral scents and I was worried I'd miss them completely this year.

A few more random shots from the garden.

And on a final note, a bittersweet occasion: one of the large agave plants out front has started to spike! Unfortunately, this means its life is coming to an end, but over the next few months it's going to put on a hell of a show. I'll be sure to post more pictures of it as it develops.

@hornedking I love agave and have been fortunate to see several in full bloom at J.C. Raulston Arboretum in Raleigh, North Carolina the past few years. Quite a thing to see! Hopefully yours will spit out seeds you can collect and keep it going!

@thegardendude It's my parents' plant, but I'm sure they'll gather plenty of the babies! My mom regularly collects seeds from her annuals so there'll definitely be a few rounds of pup and bulbil collecting.
