OOOPS Tiny Nanna

Thank you for the warm welcome!
Nice bloom parade, Tex68, ngam, Pixie, venu, ge1836...gosh you all have wonderful photos from your gardens!!! The irises sure are beautiful, I missed out getting pics at Schreiner's this year when the garden was in full bloom. Darn it!

Thanks Meredith. It is a canna.

Here is a photo from last month when I visited the Schreiner gardens early in the month. I loved all the poppies in bloom.

How do they do that.All those poppies at the same height and straight?
Mine dont grow in big patches like that.There just isnt enough room.
Wonderful pic

I'll let you in on a secret!
This is how they did it!
:)

Groaaaaan.
This is my Gouachamole with Lilies about to blume.Sweet Surrender.

Here is one of my containers with Japanese Barberry 'rose glow' Fuchsia Marinka & Maxima.

Your containers are great.
Here is the Florida Sieboldi I planted mid May.Bought it from Donehues.I think its the smallest plant I ever saw, Some of the others in the order didnt make it.

^_^ at GardenGuy's secret. Love the barberry container!

Jo, I've never noticed a scent from my goatsbeard, but now I'll have to check.

Correction: the hydrangea I posted as Sharona is actually Blaumeise. I've been singing to the wrong plant.

Your flower bed with the hosta sure looks nice I think I see heuchera lilies and a maple. You just have ta love them hostas for their luscious leaves!

You did see those things

Nice, folks....can't believe tour iris are still blooming, Pixie....mine are long gone. The JIs are gorgeous, & Jo so nice to see all your lilies. Allison, your hummer shots are great!

Wonderful pics. Love the hummer shots specially the second pic, rose quartz rock and TBIs. JoAnn 's lilies and the poppies from GGK. The container and the beautiful canna. Hard to keep up with all these beauties.
The sun came out for a very short time last evening and these guys took advantage of it.

Tried to capture the light shinning through Betty Corning and VV clems.

and another shot of 'Marmalade'.

Love the dragonflies shot

Venu! I discovered the scent.Laundry dryer vent near-by.What a cheat.

Pat, that's a very pretty combo of clems....love the color & form!

My 10 foot cosmose.Honest Allison's seed said so.Might even get taller.September is the cut off for measuring and pixing.
The seeds were direct sowed May 8.This plant is over 12 inches.
It drove me nuts not to know so I measured 15 inches.Thats 4 inches in 6 days.

I threw lots of cosmos seed in my cutting garden.....many are up, but none that tall yet. Most of the packages were mixed flower seeds......some interesting foliage has come up....can't wait to see what blooms.

looking good JoAnn!!!

I've missed a lot. Just cannot keep up. I'll start a new thread. This one is just over 300 posts.
