June is the month we wait for when our gardens burst into full bloom. And from June's fragrant birth flowers (rose and honeysuckle) to pretty-as-a-picture peonies, these June flowers are some of our favorite early summer blooms.

Honeysuckle
I have fragrant memories of coming home on a warm June evening and smelling the scent of the honeysuckle that grew in our backyard, vining up a trellis that ran along the side of our garage. With flowers ranging from delicate yellow to bright pink, these sweetly scented vines or bushes flower in June and July and attract a ton of hummingbirds and butterflies. They'll perfume your entire yard.
Honeysuckle will grow in zones 5-9.
Roses
A classic summer flower, roses start to blossom in June and carry on throughout the summer. We love their fragrance and all the different colors roses come in, from creamy white to vibrant orange to classic red.
Roses do best in zones 5-8.
