For me the month of June is when all the flowers show off, wild or cultivated, they are saying come and look at me.
On Saturday we met with friends and sat in the sunshine down by the chateau (castle). We chatted and I pointed to various plants wondering what they were. We watched some rather unusual free entertainment. One man on stilts cracking a whip, and another with a huge puppet which was a white bird.
Afterwards I insited on a quick walk around the nearby park so that I could visit the rose arbor and take some photographs of the gardens and the river Nancon.
The gardens also have two areas set aside for allotments, which I think is great since it is right in the middle of a large town.
All lined up
Flowers everywhere, I love this pink duo, hanging over a garden fence on the pathway back to the castle.

Looks a bit diffrent to the UK allotments, and much better than my own effort!! Love the roses, ours are just coming out.
Pink perfection indeed! Beautiful old fashioned roses.....I wonder if they have a scent.
Reminds me of the great allotments that used to be in the park beside us when we lived in Brussels.
Your photos are lovely.
Lovely roses, Blu....
