Well, I didn't post for Fertilizer Friday last week, because of the Fling, so I have a lot of lost time to make up for! And in the four days that I was away from my garden, lots of new flowers emerged.
 |
| My front porch pots are looking good, but these two especially. |
 |
| Tithonia 'Torch', also in pots, has finally started blooming. I grow it in pots in a protected spot, otherwise it would drown in our rain. |
The lilies that I bought at the Northwest Flower and Garden Show have started flowering.
 |
| Asiatic lily 'Eyeliner' -- See the delicate dark edge on the petals? |
 |
| Can't find the tag. |
My daylilies are flowering up a storm too.
 |
| Going Bananas |
 |
| I can't find the tag for this one either. |
 |
| Barbara Mitchell |
 |
| I thought I only sowed black HHs here, but I'll take pink! |
 |
| My floppy Tidytips is flowering |
 |
| The plants around the stream are looking quite lush and pretty. |
 |
| Are these two Agastaches trying to muscle in on the red twig dogwood? |
My Dahlias are starting to flower. I got this one from a spring swap. It's hard to tell from the photo, but the flower is enormous!
 |
| Dahlia 'Kelvin Floodlight' |
 |
| Fuchsia magellanica |
 |
| Penstemon 'Firebird' |
 |
| The hummingbirds are loving the Jacob Kline Monarda. |
 |
| The delicate flowers of a gold-leaved Filipendula, against chocolate Joe Pye foliage. |
 |
| I have a whole row of Sempervivum that are flowering like mad. According to what I've read online, they will die after flowering. Bummer! |
 |
| Coreopsis grown from seed last year |
I have many clumps of Shasta daisies flowering all over the yard, a few different varieties.
 |
| Shasta 'Crazy Daisy' |
 |
| Some are crazier than others. Kind of like gardeners. |
|
|
Some new purchases, not yet planted.
 |
| Canna 'Tropical Bronze Scarlet' |
 |
| Love the freckles on this Canna. There was no tag. |
