'Long about knee-deep in June,
'Bout the time strawberries melts
On the vine, -- some afternoon
Like to jes' git out and rest,
And not work at nothin' else!"
- James Witcomb Riley, Knee Deep in June
The month of leaves and roses,
When pleasant sights salute the eyes
And pleasant scents the noses."
- Nathaniel Parker Willis, The Month of June
What do you like best about the month of June?
The rose was shot in a "white box" as described in a post by my friend Sandra. Click HERE to see her post.

Gorgeous blooms! Love the shot of the rose in the white box. My favorite part of June is the start of summer and the promise of many warm, sun filled days. And of course watching things grow in the garden! :-)
thanks for your lovely flowers! it´s always nice to see your wonderful pictures! thanks for joining us week by week :)
What a beauty! I love the strong colors on the white blackground. Faboulous! Have a good weekend
I love all the vibrant colors in these pretty flowers. have a great weekend.
Beautiful, beautiful flowers, and I especially love it as they are arranged in containers!
Makes me want to get some peppermint ice cream, for some reason. :-)
june is the beginning of hot, dry summer here in texas. i prefer march or april. :)
Just beautiful! June is the same way here with all our pretty flowers!
I haven't seen such beautiful flowers.
Be still my heart. you have taken all the beauty of summer and compressed it into your post today! I think this is a Peppermint Splash rose? But what are these purple flowers??
It may be the month of June, but here, the flowers haven't had the chance to come out at all. It's been cold and wet - drowning the roses when they peep out. When it's not wet, it's windy - blowing the few petals off their stems. The weather is really not June here.
Your pictures show so much sunshine and beautiful flowers. Oh, to have a week of that...
well your white box worked better than mine did. i love the bursting beauty of this flower. and the first two photos are yelling HAPPY HAPPY at the top of their beautiful lungs. the header is smashing and oh so brilliant.
Gorgeous pictures, especially your header!
Lovely photos and June quotes! I'd say the best part of June for me is the weather!
WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!
Mom and I absolutely love the posies and the purples are especially pretty.
And just for you being so nice to share we're sending you via FED EX some Southern HOTS
Hugs Madi and Mom
As always ... absolutely stunning flowers. It always amazes me how you find some great quotes to go along with your photos. Thanks so much for sharing.
Your header is gorgeous! All these flowers are so pretty! I just love seeing all the different flowers! I like June because my son's birthday is at the end of the month and I always look back and remember carrying him for nine months and holding him in my arms for the first time. :)
First, the header photo is stunning! And, all the blooms are so pretty! I love June...everything about it! Flowers, weather, sunshine...all of it!
i wish we could have 2 months of June! such pretty colors and mood!
Black Raspberries were a June favorite this year. Splendid header!
Love the poems...not sure what I like about June. Probably that we are that much closer to having fresh tomatoes!
I just love them all! the wonderfully captured vividly colored petals are so radiant they have entered the depths of my soul :-)
Wow, those colors are poppin!
I think the thing I like the most about June is that it's a combination of spring and summer, my two favorite seasons.
Wonderful photos of these beautiful flowers!
Thank you for participating in Floral Friday Fotos!
