Garden Blooms #10

Yup thats it~!

aaaaaawwwwww cute

We used to make processions leading with the 'bud headed ones & proceeding with the slightly open hat & ending with one and a real fancy hat. Of course if you want flowers, you have to leave some on the plant.

Those sound neat!

I have HH buds on the only plant the germed from seeds I got at Louises RU sept 2009. The orange fungus is starting too.
T sowed 2 kinds ,a black and a yellow. Cant wait to see which this is.

nice I found a agastache purple pygmy that returned in the garden!!

I can't grow a HH with out the rust anymore, it's getting to be maddening!

You are lucky with Agastache Allison.I expect to see mine disappear one of these years. Apricot went.

Pixie I was reluctant to soew the HH ,but the couple was soo insistant I just did. It wont break my heart if they disappear.
I just LOVE this JI.Prairy Glory from Pirl.

Nice Jo! That's very pretty.

very nice.

came here to drool...my garden's late. I didn't get here until a few days before Memorial Day and took me a few days to get everything uncovered from pine needles and oak leaves. Finally perennials are emerged and budding but until the start to flower (and after) I will continue to happily 'live' vicariously with your wonderful gardens.

What a great slide show, Jo, and what beautiful, soothing music to go with it. I love it.

You're gardens will be blooming away soon, Sue, and then you'll have lots of stuff to post and brag about, too.

Karen

Thanks, Lucy, for the heads up on the HH dolls....my granddaughters will love them! Jo, your sense of design & color really shows in that presentation....This is one of the Canadian roses, blooming very late this year....

Cleome around the wellhouse......

The last spuria to open....

Very pretty Robin, you have some really nice spuria's!

Jo your gardens are lovely, can't get over all the lilies. :)

Thanks.....the literature said spurias don't form large clumps for many years, but the clumps are getting large....I should have enough to share by next year.....

Ohhh Yesssss ALL the lilies. There must be over 300. Its a long story.
How about a new thread.I'll start one.

Come on along to the new thread:

Shure the wording is a bit different but its the same blooms and shots of flowers.

ge1836, what is the name of the yellow lily at the top of this thread?

TIA

Salmon Classic.Its an early asiatic and the first pix I have are from early June. It is just now going out of bloom.
Wonderful lily.

Gorgeous visit to your gardens, Allison, Songs, Celeste, Victor, Jen, Karen, Patti, JoAnn and Marilyn! I went all the way back through this thread again and enjoyed looking at the blooms and peaceful places just as much a second time!!

Do any of you Daylily experts recognize this guy? He's a NOID in my garden that has a very large bloom. It's just bugging me that I don't know who he is. He bloomed his first bloom for the year today.

Are you sure it's not Fruit Loops?

Hmmmmm - could be.....my Fruit Loops is in a different location, but maybe I have two. This guy has been in this location for a few years. It sure does look like it though. Thanks, Celeste!

This is the pink lily section. I need to move some lilies.

Very pretty, JoAnne!!

That DL is a beauty, Louise....and you know how I love pink lilies, Jo. My friend, Carole, didn't know why all she had left of her lilies were stalks.....the red devil strikes again!

I was so thrilled that the dreaded red beetles have not decimated my lilies this year! Well on my walk-about this morning I realized that I was visited in the night by deer! No more fat lily buds :(

Awe, so sorry Songs!

I know. It's maddening! But it/they didn't do too much damage. Just the day lilies and lilies. I have been relatively lucky so far which surprises me since I have so many things that deer like and I see them on my street all the time. I'm afraid now that they've found me I'm in trouble. I really have no way of fencing my yard.

Oooh, those pesky deer! How about Irish Spring soap? My friend's garden hasn't been chewed this summer since she put out a few bars......

Do you just put the bars around the garden or do they have to be grated?

I saw someone hanging them up in old panty hose

Yup and my Aunt used to shave it and make a border around the plants with it.

I would try Liquid Fence or Deer Off, along with Milorganite first. The soap thing is pretty weird if you ask me.

I'll have to give that a try. Thanks!

Here are a couple shots from today.
