"Leda's Lover' and 'Indian Giver'

Oh, I love them all! That first dark pink phlox looks like Shortwood......here's a new phlox for me....

A bright one....

I like bright screaming colors!!

Great phlox shots!

Hubby was up on the roof this morning so I threw the camera up to him. Here's part of the new bed in the front

Looks nice, SOJ!

Ornamental pepper

Another ornamental pepper

Anemone

Gerbera Daisy

It looks cool, Songs.

Great shots SOJ

Jen, that Gerber should have a warning on it...."Sunglasses needed" :)

I want to add, "Me too" to the praise for SOJ's gardens. It must be so nice to sip a glass of lemonade at the table by the stream.

Here's a combo I was going for...this is the first year for it. I'm glad all 3 bloomed some-what at the same time. 'Hacienda' (pure white) was first, then 'Santa Rosa' (white w/soft pink) second and finally the deeper pink one is 'Vendella'. They are approx. 5 and half feet tall....taller than me anyways. ^_^

Better look @ 'Vendella'

It's good to know Vandella lily is just starting. Seems by early August my DL and my few lilies are spent, so I'm looking forward to learning what people are doing for blossom sparkle for this period before the fall bloomers. Rose of Sharon is an exception, and my magnolia decided to put on another smaller show, but I want more, more more! I do have a few of the usual suspects, though.

nice lilies Pixie.

Thanks Jo! Those come from Faraway Flowers.


Rosemary a late blooming lily would be 'Uchida'
