I've looked at that one Pirl, is it a good bloomer for you? It's lovely.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Pretty Ronnie!

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

Very pretty, Ronnie.

Sadly, no, Pixie. It's a slow grower and not a prolific bloomer.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Ah, too bad...i've been picking ones with better bud count and lat. branching.

So glad to hear you're feeling better...just in time for Tuesday's snow.

Beauties, Allison and Marilyn.

Pixie - some with high bud counts get so crowded with blooms that they can't all open - very annoying and not photographic.

Beautiful DLs going on today. Patti, that beach plum is .....WOW!

Nantucket, MA(Zone 7a)

venu209, Thanks. I agree about the DL's and in fact I am now going back through all my photo's of DL's to try to Id some of them with the correct names and trying to see if I need more. I do have an order in but I am getting inspired by some of the pink ones.

Robindog, that is a stunning one as is Pirl's Marietta Polkadot. Pixie always posts great ones. Patti

Mine bloomed pale grey, not even blue grey. What a disapointment. I gave it 2 years. GC plant too, bocoup bucks.

Nice coloring on that Victor, love the darker streaks in the petals.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

It's one of my faves. The most prolific bloomer of any hardy hibiscus I have.

Thomaston, CT

Love the anenomes, Jo....hope my took! That baptisia is a great color, & love the hibiscus.....Pixie, that's one beauty of a DL!

My Baptisia Praire Smoke has been a bust so far too. I do love them and keep trying various ones. A white was showing some promise last year. My best one has always been Baptisia Carolina Moonlight which is a cheery nice yellow and that has been reliable and long blooming.

Quoting:
Planted 2007 14.00 lg pot from Surfing Hydrangea Nursery.
A cross between B. sphaerocarpa and B. alba, forming a handsome shrubby perennial to 4’ with 18” spires of creamy yellow lupine like flowers in late spring. Long lived and drought tolerant. Zone: 4 Exposure: sun/pt shade


Pixie, another amazing DL.

Victor, I Love that Hibiscus too, not in my garden, but I do have it in the liquor cabinet. Patti

Robindog, does that photo mean you are "In the Pink" again? Hope so Patti

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Thank Robing & Patti!
I bought 2 bapt. last year, the blue and a yellow one....I hope it's the one Patti has:)

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

Pretty shot, Jo Ann.

Nice Purple Smoke, Allison.

Love the bi color on that daylily, Celeste.

Victor - great shadows playing with that Hibiscus.

Nice bright pink, Marilyn.

Patti - that liquor cabinet comment was funny!

Started a prescrip today, so hopefully, will be better soon, & enjoying everyone's beautiful photos!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Ha ha! Just asked that on another thread, Robin! Feel better.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Ya but if I do a new garden in the backyard has to be totally Wall-e proof

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

Hope you feel a big difference by morning, Marilyn.

Victor - how is your son feeling today?
