love both the black & blue and the purple & blue!!

Karen.. think I need that lupine!!!.. Weeze so many pretties I watched twice.. can't believe your delphs are awake already

Thanks, Celeste.

Weeze, very nice pics. I love that Huldine clem.

Karen

TBI Millennium Falcon from Zebra Iris.

Oops! forgot the pic. Not surprising.

LOL! I watched twice, too, Weeze!

NOID blue and white.

Wow, everyone's yards are just bursting with color!!!!

close on that one...

'nother NOID...

closer look.....

variegated comfry.....

I need that Lupine too! Looking great Karen! My Iris are done, it's nice to revisit them, they're so beautiful.

Allison, that's the only one, the rest are working on growing.

oh Karen that zebra is outstanding!

Thanks Weeze and Allison. I have one iris bed that looks the best it's ever looked in the 10 years I've been here. I'm so thrilled. Mostly they are iris that my late mother planted, and all NOID, as tags got lost. But I love them all. They're so pretty.

Karen

That's why I love the reblooming ones, the others seem to come and go sooooo fast!

This is the first year to see blooms on my KOI co-op poppy collection 2008.
I have no idea what it is could be Prince of Orange or Beauti of Liverwurst I dont care. It took 3 years to grow to ant size and now many buds. That was my LAST co-op by the way.

This area has a lot of work left to do, but look, some blooms to encourage me.

a few pics... with some losses

Beauutiful! Love the poppy!

thanks.. just starting to spread now

I love that poppy too. Is it california or oriental? What was CB?

Looks pretty as it is, Rosemary!

coral bell

:(

and oriental

Sweet, nice looking Allison. Joann, I now have poppy envy. My orientals haven't even budded. The champagne bubbles from last year have been long dead. I do have seedlings growing though.

Oh, how pretty everything looks! If only June could last 6 months! Here is verbascum....

Allison, you may want to make sure they are really dead. Mine arose from the dead last year.

Rose 'Morden Sunrise'

And clem Ruutel...

I bought them at lowes when they had the 3 for $10 sale.. guess it wasn't such a good deal.. I will leave em there for a while.. there is something with that spot in the garden.. not sure what the deal is.. so far the only things to live there .. are some foxgloves.. I know the chipmunks tunnel under that spot.. wonder if that is what is doing it

Do it the Italian way, Allison. Shoot it and see it if moves.

my co-worker told me how he handles em.. pretty gross though

Marilyn, Modern sunrise looks hot!!!

Pretty, Marilyn! I seem to like any rose that starts with Morden.

I can't do harm to chippies or bunnies. My attack is to plant enough stuff so I can share.

Mordern sunrise is beautiful.

Anyone know the name of these irises? I just got them last year but I lost the tag! I thought it was 'Rare Treat' in this spot, but doesn't seem to match the picture.

Can't help with the name, but they sure are pretty!

Yes, very nice. I would call them 'Jessica'. Don't know why.

Enough light to photo.Still windy.
