Blooms 2011 #6

Great Irises Celeste. I like little darling, should be it's name!

I'm hoping this works. I've found that I can take pics using my iPhone, and post the whole lot of them up to Facebook, relatively quickly. Otherwise, it's plug the iPhone into my computer, upload onto my computer, come to DG, choose the pic (hope it uploads relatively quickly and easily), and rinse and repeat. I really hope this link works.

Nice Thom!!! No problem viewing them, all are beautiful! Love that peony!!!!!

Very pretty!, Thom

Very nice Thom.Nice to see you again
I just finished planting the annuals in the woodpile garden.
I dont plant perennials there,too much winter and early spring traffic.
The area gets large and small caladiums and this year a mix of impatiens.

Bleeding H. & Polem.

an ID needed in there too.. weed or not???

Love the irises Thom.The blues and the yellows are fab. Marilyn, nice shots. The iris above coleus freckles is very pretty.

Yum Allison; nice shots. What's the plant with the purplish blue bunch of little flowers. I want that!!!

thanks.. it's baptisia purple smoke

I can't believe you have clems too! Zone envy again:( That Golden Shadows is stunning!

Nice! My Golden Shadows is way more yellow - gets more sun.

I keep thinking that vine is a weed now.. but not sure.. the passion flower was planted nearby but I think the leaves were different

Not sure what it is.......looks familar though.

that golden shadows burned when it had 10 feet more sun.. now that it's behind the shed and closer to the tree line no burn marks

Mine does get some burning, but not so bad.

Did not know you can measure the strength of the sun in feet! ^_^

Pixie, am drooling over "Sparks Fly".....Allison, love the Plum Quirky.....That vine looks like Old Man's Beard.....

nope not the maypop

Nice Allison! I just got conversation piece this year. She's a beauty.

Nice to see you Thom, and nice pics too!

Beautiful fence line Marilyn. Isn't it nice to have family hand me downs!

The second day of heat and sun sent the roses into a blooming tizzy.

Abraham Darby

Aunt Honey, which performs well no matter the weather, sun or shade

Oenothera.....great at the feet of roses

And at their hips??? ^_^

Belinda's Dream

I'll check that out in the fall :)

Tamora, lousy foliage, but pretty blooms

Livin Easy which seems much happier since some lavender that was surrounding it died.

Big Apricot, which does have big blooms, but they don't look apricot to me ;)

Campanula Blue Waterfall, like this one spilling over a rocky edge

LOVE this shrub. Physocarpus Coppertina.

Schuberti with the long thingies. I thought they died, but maybe the fact that I planted some Iris on top of them made it a bit difficult for them to grow. This guy made it though.

Baptisia.....nice plant that stays nice til winter.

Victor, HELP! I know you have this one too. What is it??
