Countdown to spring! One garden photo per day - Part 6

For today
Begonias blooming in the dinningroom.

nice begoinas!

painted daisy

very pretty

thank you.. that is one I wished lasted longer.. blooms and it's done

Wc's clem with your painted daisies would be an electric combo Allison. Both blooms beautiful!
Nice begonias Jo.

dew?

broom:

jm's inaba shidare and virdis with sedum and endless summer hydrangea
- have since moved the endless summer out of bed and will move viridis down into its place. Inaba shirade is being moved out and red spider jm will take its place.

Great colors, ladies!

Like the sedum with the JM, Bill.

thx - it gets yellow flowers and that really add contrast to the red - its why i'm replacing it with another red one - that is not a dissectum - orangeola is close by so i wanted to separate them and attempt espaliering the IS

Love the bright colors of the painted daisy and the broom.

Stew?

Nice Bill!
Weez I love that Boom! I had the yellow one but lost it after 3 years, that would of been stunning beside it!!
Allison did you grow those painted -D's from seed? There are stunning, bet you can see them from clear across the yard!
Wow Ge, look at all the buds on that begonia! It likes what ever your giving it!!

nice celeste!
wc that clem shot is great
allison wish my painted daisy's looked like that
joann is that a spring shot:)
and what is a broom?

Beautiful red JM Bill

Another day and more pretty pics.
Jens noid lily is very pretty, nice soft pink.
Venu that is a cute shot of the birdie on the sneaker. Did you leave it there for him? Also a gorgeous pic of a broom that I think I will need sooner or later, what color.
Okay WC has made it necessary for dark glasses with that electric Multi Blue pic. Wonderful up close and personal.
What a nice thing to have those begonias blooming to chase away the winter blahs. Thanks JoAnn.
Onewish gives us another pic to knock you awake this am, painted daisies. Love them, wish they bloomed longer.
Another great garden shot from Bill with more beautiful JMs.
Then to top off all this early morning beauty there is an elegant shot of lilies from Pixie. What a nice from below view. Is that phlox in back? Nice combo.
Here is my pic for today, inspired by some of yours. Phlox Laura and Snow Cap daisies.

that is a nice combo!

Wonderful pictures. Beautiful lilies, Pixie. What is the sedum Bill, I like it, although I probably would not like the yellow flowers there either.

Here's clem 'Belle Of Woking' from May. Someone told me it was 'common' and did not bloom well, but I think it's gorgeous. This is from Dana Borglums Iris Gardens. I bought three.

that's is a great question polly - i got it so long ago and did not keep the label or maybe it is out there? here is another shot with the flowers

yeah 2 posts !!

Another one non-conformist!

Here is Fragrant Spreader.

what do you mean? polly asked a question

i think my wife calls me a fragrant spreader at times

LOL

Daylily...non-fragrant spreader!

It's anarchy Victor, pure and simple. :) Very nice pics everyone, even the double pics by Bill. Tisk tisk.

LOL good one Pirl, and a pretty DL too.

Thanks, Pat. It's one of my own hybrids.

very nice pirl

Thanks, Bill.

Celeste I am not sure if those are ones I bought or grew.. I have 2 sets and not sure which is which.. but they were easy to grow from seed... now that I know I won't buy them ever again.. the nice thing is they stay pretty tight and don't take up too much room.. when they get ugly once the temps pick up.. I hack them back every year.. so far so good

I grew some from seed one year, they didn't come back, but were great the year I did it

Hi debilu

Hi JoAnn, I made a new years resolution to be more up to date with all these threads, and so far haven't been that good with it!

Pat I have the phlox too and can see I need to move some near the daisy's.
Wow Polly, thats beautiful!! Look at all those blooms!
Bill I think you belong in the landscaping business!!
Victor I love how bright that little spreader is!
Pirl i've always loved that DL of yours......"Pirl's Eye's" is it?

So we are up to 2 photo's a day now???

Guess this one would be appropriate then..........
"Westbourne Naughty Girl"

Looks like that beauty has some obvious Munson genes, Pixie! Love the color!

Ok, Victor was very angry that I chilled on the thread because I was down to my exceptionally good shots for last spring. He threatened to fog up my camera lens, so I've made a slight concession and I'll post one every now and then... (but I still want to be chintzy because I've got some really, really good shots which are 'top secret'! lol!)

- The colors of the 'Multi-blue' are accurate, (in case anyone is wondering), just to make sure I photographed the clem w/o sunlight to prove it to myself so I could confirm it's lack of / or it's true iridescence, (*and thanks everyone for your kind comments! ☺)

...

both shots are pretty!

I was joking - stay off! ^_^

Great shot.

Lol!!

Love that clem.

Enjoying this thread immensely, have I mentioned that?


Sweet pea
