Very pretty, Patti. July Mint from Buggy reminds me so much of the Stunning, which I bought from her and love.
Garden Photos 1 per day #3
I got them both from Buggy Crazy and they do look so much the same, but L.Stunning is listed as earlier and taller. Love them both. Patti
Quoting:
2 for 7.00 STUNNING, Asiatic Lily
An Asiatic seedling from Yellow Blaze with huge, lemon yellow flowers on 4-5 foot stems that is just stunningly bright! Large purple spots and a high bud count make this a great bright spot in the June garden. This is one of the few lilies we named upon first sight, from the kitchen window it was spotted way out in the field and we had to get out there and see who that stunning lily was!
Quoting:
6.00 for 2 JULY MINT, Asiatic Lily
A late blooming seedling bred from Yellow Blaze with wide, chartreuse-yellow blooms on 2-3 foot stems. Blooms are upfacing and compact, a scattering of dark spots, pollen and stigma accent the pale petals. Blooms in Early July.
Asiatic lilies are the easiest of the lilies to grow, very drought tolerant and bloom in early summer. Hardy in zones 3 - 9, and prefer full sun or afternoon shade.
Thanks. They are both lovely.
YAY from today!!!!!
::grumble:: nice Jen... LOL
Sorry, but I was so excited when I saw them, I ran inside to get my camera, hubby thinks I'm nuts
Beautiful iris! Don't know when mine will surface! Love those lilies, too.....I'm not sure how many I have left :(.....

Jen, my fav. lucky you. Patti
Beautiful, Jen.
Patti, I love that July Mint lily, and really nice photo, too.
Pirl, Stunning is just stunning! Must get more Asiatic and Oriental lilies this year.

Jo, you have a lot of work ahead of you this year. Those look good.
Karen
Nice combos Ge!
Lovely combo pictures Ge & Karen, I too like the name:)
Love Shasta's.....the birds have been kind and spread them in our field last year...it was pretty but only in small patches. I'm hoping they spread more for me last fall.
TBI 'Spiced Custard'
Cant wait. Has anyone planted dwarf glads in planters? how many per pot?
2 to 4 inches apart , depends on the pot size how many
I've never done that, Jo.
Beautiful iris, Celeste!
Karen
Chicago Apache (red) and Vera Biaglow
Pixi ,pots are 12 inches. I will plant with coleus. Brent and Beckys sends 10 bulbs.
I'm guessin 3 per pot and put the rest in the garden for late summer color.
What do you think?
Sounds good to me :)
thanx
I wish I lived closer to you, Jo, so you could plan my gardens as well! Wonderful combos....I ordered glads from Brent & Becky's also.
Great name, Karen
Great combos, Jo
Love that Spiced Custard, Celeste
Daisies are such a happy flower
Another shot from yesterday
Our reticulata irises are not up as yet. However I don't want to go looking in the rain. Will substitute sdb 'Sun Sprite' which of coure, hasn't started either.
Very nice!
Crocus from today.
Nice bright crocuses!
Dahlia 'Woodland's Merinda'.
Nothing blooming here :( ....don't even see crocus foliage......chipmunks?
Squirrels eat the flowers here. Haven't seen a chipmunk in 30 years. They don't disguise themselves as deer, do they?
LOL...I've seen very active chippies this week......they love the stone walls....right, Bill?
Just got in from pulling weeds (already???)
Thanks to all who complimented me on the name for my late mother's DL. Will register it eventually. Should do it this year, actually, as I have plenty to sell.
Pirl, you've seen squirrels eating your crocus? I get mine eaten every year and always blame it on rabbits or deer, but really don't know what's eating them, as I never seen the culprit. Never thought squirrels might like them.
Jen, I've pulled weeds here myself. Amazing how early they start. Glad there's not too many yet. That will be in May and June and July and Aug. Oh, and can't forget about Sept. and Oct. LOL! The only time we get a break is Nov. through Feb. Ha!
Nice shots, everyone.
Karen
Karen - register the daylily. It will be an honor to her.
Rabbits eat them as well. I'll try to keep better watch at the back door while I get coffee in the morning.
I have a bunch to register, Pirl. Will get them done eventually. It's $15 to register each one, and I have limited money, so a few at a time.
Karen
I'm sorry I never registered any of ours so that's why I was trying to encourage you to do it.
What happened to yours?
Karen
