Time Out
TPNursery, Did you get snow this week?
We received a lot of rain. Snow at higher elevations.
So far, all of my plants are doing well considering the cold wet conditions.
Even my clematis plants are doing well which I am happy about.
Here's my mailbox favorite:
Pink Mystery
Oooh, That's a pretty one!
I heard Mammoth was getting some snow, but hadn't seen anything about Tahoe. Very strange weather.
Oh, yes, Mammoth gets lots of snow early.
They actually had skiing on the 4th of July!
We're getting snow pretty soon.
Here's another Pink Mystery taken a few minutes ago in the rain and with a flash.
She's trying to open. Hopefully, it'll warm up a bit in a few days for her to open fully.
Close up of Tiger Edition.
Still trying to figure on why the color is faded in areas.
Wondering if it is due to the much cooler temps we have here.
Some of my white lilies from last summer.
I am learning new software so I can present slideshows with music.

The slide show is wonderful, you have an excellent variety of plants. Thanks for sharing.
Love the slide show!
thanks for posting.
Its my new toy.
Loved your slide show, your garden is beautiful.
WOW, ge, that was a wonderful slide show. Looking forward to those 3 year olds...LOL
Thanks everyone.
Dreams of summer "11 will keep me going all winter.
Awesome slide show, ge1836! I think my favorite slide was #16, with what looks like either Silk Road or Triumphator with monarda. I love the colors together! Gave me good inspiration for what to plant with my Silk Roads! Loved the pink lily with the pink astilbe, too. You have a wonderful eye for color!

Hi Angie, The monarda - lily combo is Garden Treasure. I love making Color Echoes.
Its funny how those dark pink and white lilies look the same to me. I loved Silk Road 2 years ago when I saw it in another DG garden.
That Pink lily with astilbe is a short one. Mona Lisa oriental and Astilbe red something ,it's more purple than fire red.
I had some little Petite Wonder monarda, but it got powdery mildew, and I'm not sure I caught it quickly enough to save it. I'll have to see if it comes back next year. Do you know what variety of Monarda that is? Do you have trouble with powdery mildew on your monarda? I'd heard of it (mostly in reference to phlox), but didn't realize how devastating it could be until my monarda was afflicted!
I think I have some Mona Lisa lilies, from a co-op last year. I'll have to go digging in my files to see! I just may have to play with Smilebox, too. :) Looks like fun!
Monarda Raspberry Wine.It gets mildew but returnes next year.
Smilebox is easy to operate.I bought the annual fee part to have more music access.
Mildew doesnt look great I know.
Has anyone seen this.

Very nice garden and an excellent way to show &
tell. A breath of fresh air on this cold N.E. Ohio
morning. Thanks.
I am putting together Just Lilies series and am swamped. I had no idea I had so many pix.
I try to keep the albums short so viewers dont nod off.
Here is another. I love the song birds which have been gone for months.
