So much in bloom now, enjoying walking though the garden every day. The quail are still visiting daily and the babies are growing fast, they all can fly now, although, per usual, it's just short distances. Parents like to watch from a higher vantage point, the female was on the neighbors roof here
Some highlights from the past few days.
Rose 'Grace'
Clematis Franziska Maria™ with white Hyde Hall behind it
clematis Romantika
My camera can barely handle this bright Brothers Grimm rose
Iris 'Colette Thurillet'
Love the colors that I got in this image, Helen Hayes rose
Got the frame of the coop painted, windows are getting an eggplant plum color, it all goes so nice with the garden colors. My bronze Eastern Ninebark (Physocarpus opulifolius Coppertina™) looks good against that green. 
Grapes and roses reaches across for each other, nice that I can walk underneath
First lily opened, Lily (Lilium 'Courier')
yarrow, penstemon and poppies
Paul Black iris
Strange Brew iris and Brookside geranium
canna, a black leafed dahlia and rose
Giant Hyssop (Agastache 'Summer Love')
Peruvian Lily (Alstroemeria Princess Lilies® Isabella)
Queen Anne's Lace (Daucus carota)
Caramella
I break off individual rosette pieces of Blue Echeveria (Echeveria secunda) and scatter them along bed edges and then grow into large clumps. You can see a few starting to send up blooms

Now we have two mated pairs of quail and their collective chicks coming through the garden, we counted 15 little ones yesterday, that's a lot to keep track of!
Painting the coop a fun avocado green, blends in nicely into the garden. Anxious to see this progress and done but it's slow going right now, I work part time and hubby hurt his back earlier this week so it's one day working on it, and then the next day he's resting. 
Graham Thomas rose is looking so good on the satellite pergola.
This big shrub has small blooms but they are awesome in full flush. It needs an arbor over the pathway now. A great rose!
Rose (Rosa 'Ghislaine de Feligonde')
A self seeded Nicotiana sylvestris backed by Black Lace sambucus and golden locust tree
My favorite lavender, Hidcote, I have several scattered around.
And last year I posted pictures of the resident California quail and chicks, they're visiting again with a new batch, 5-6 of them, walking by our patio slider and through the garden several times a day. Had to get a bigger lens to zoom in on them.
A new project is in the works, all the framing went up yesterday. We will soon be proud owners of our own egg producing clucks! The roof will slant toward the back, the roosting house and egg laying nests will be on the left elevated so it's open underneath, the rest is part of the run. We are limiting ourselves to 5 hens, I have the breeds picked out and the hatch dates marked on my calendar. 
Stay tuned.
Adding to the last two posts:
A wasp on Colette Thurillet, if you enlarge it, it's marked with an H.
Bee on Jacob's Robe, and if you enlarge the second one, you'll see it also has an H marking.
And these look like caterpillars to me.
