I often complain that I don't have enough flowers, but when I go out into the garden to take photographs for Bloom Day, I always find something. It's a big garden, so the flowers are spread out.
|
It's always nice to see the Cyclamen reappear. |
|
It's the season for lots of Rudbeckia too |
|
And I've got several pots of Echinacea waiting in the pot ghetto |
|
As well as a Berkheya purpurea |
|
Clematis tangutica 'Helios' |
|
This Primrose is reblooming |
|
I've still got plenty of Calendula going strong, such as this one which self-sowed itself in exactly the right color-coordinated spot. |
|
I love that the reverse on the petals is mahogany red |
|
Nicotiana sylvestris self-sowed next to, and taller than, Mopsy the bigleaf Magnolia |
|
Dahlia with fly and waiting predator |
|
The Asters are starting to flower |
|
Verbascum bombyciferum has been flowering all summer |
|
The fall-blooming tall Sedums are starting to flower now too |
|
As well as the Japanese Anemones |
|
The recent rains have brought the species Echinaceas back into bloom |
|
Fuchsia magellanica 'Aurea' is another one that flowers all summer |
|
One of my favorite shrubs, golden Leycesteria formosa, is covered in blooms |
|
Hard to believe, but this large shrub was just a rooted cutting last year when I planted it |
And that's pretty much it for September.
