Victor that looks like my Harry on steroids!
Garden Photos #45
Hee hee. I'll have to look up the exact variety.
Wow---I didn't know mock orange had fruit! My Dad always had one, but a different variety---the fragrance was wonderful----hope to smell the real orange trees in bloom next month!
Robin when I went to UofA, there was a walkway with orange trees and the blooms smelled heavenly. I miss that scent!
my garden still blooming, I've even had some frost now.
while putting away some halloween stuff today.. I saw quite a few petunias blooming still.. I was shocked.. I need to do a ton of garden clean up out there.. sigh
I know the feeling:-)
Love those iris, Jumper! I still have million bells---weird!
Wow, I love that mock orange, Victor! That's something else!

Okay Victor that mock orange looks outstanding. Did you find the specifics on what variety it is? How tall etc I think it would be a nice deer deterrent with hose spikes maybe. It is one of those things I look at every year and then never get around to trying, may have to give it more consideration.
I would give that one more consideration myself, especially if it doesn't get too big.
Karen
Still have not, Pat. I know I got it from Fairweather, but they don't have it now. I will have to look up my old receipts.
look it up so your mirror garden is complete
Hee hee! It's a great architectural plant. I am sorry I did not plant it where I can see it from inside. Might have to get another myself!
stop typing and check those receipts! :)
One of these days...
Went out to see if there is a tag - there is not. Another nice feature is striped bark. I'll take another pic tomorrow.
Okay - bad memory at work again. I contacted FW and they corrected me. It's not a mock orange. I was starting to doubt that myself when I was searching. It's this:

thx!
No problem. FW does not show it now but I'll ask if they will re-stock.
Thanks Victor for doing so much searching. I can see how the names could be confused. It is an outstanding little tree.
No problem. Just heard back from FW - they're no longer stocking it. No success in recent propagating.
Nice, Victor, though expensive. Probably cause it's so hard to propagate.
Karen
Don't go by that place. They're a ripoff. I only used that link because there were nice pics.
Oh, okay. So maybe it could be had for cheaper somewhere else.
Karen
I'm sure it can.
The only flower I saw at the farm we visited today

Cute!
I think the cow is a blue roan---very interesting. I worked in the garden today, & found these blooming----salvia 1...
Salvia 2...
Vinca...
And calendula---also have roses, gaura, asters, & geraniums---oh, pansies, too. I love to see this so late!
My garden inside is happening today!
Cymbidiums are starting.
This one has a heavenly fragrance.
