What's Blooming?? # 6

Oh hey Jan, I must not of replied Lucky Number looks nice, Seems to be an earlier flowering one too. Are you on the helenium payroll now too? Looks good, is that one shorter?


this tree isn't mine, but I like this photo.

aspenbooboo41 great shot of the butterfly

grampapa very pretty dahlia

cool abstract picture al

No, Al, I just have an unpaid helenium internship. Do you mean to tell me I have one that you don't have yet? Mercy me, get the smelling salts! It's supposed to get to 32", but mine is about 2'. is that dwarf for a helenium? the flowers are tiny...very cute.

I like your bark photo, too. tree bark is often very cool.

thanks for the nice comments on the dahlia...should be thanking Al, it was his tuber :0)

here's 'Bonanza'

some roses...'Well Being'

'F J Grootendorst'

'Gee Whiz'

'Yves Piaget'

'Rosemary Rose'

'Iceberg'

'Lion's Fairytale'

'Topaz Jewel'

Gram, they are all pretty but "Rosemary Rose" is stunning!!

'Dublin Bay'

Now that's one bright beacon!

Hi, Pix. that's my DMIL's namesake. It's a beautiful color.

a beautiful bud on 'Moonstone'...a b'day gift from a beautiful DG friend

and here's 'Moonstone' fully opened

Oh I really like it! Hope you do too. LOL I like the pink edges, really pretty..I'm so happy it bloomed!!

took my leftover coleus seedlings and shoved 15 of them into this pot with a tiny lantana in the middle. they are really taking off. I'm sure they will be way too crowded, but I couldn't bear to toss them

I love it!!! It's so different from anything else I have. the pink edge looks like someone edged it with lipstick like we used to do with the tissue carnations. it's so delicate. and there's a bunch more buds!

Gram, how's the scent on Moonstone? Is it strong, spicey??

Pix, I haven't had a chance to smell it...it's too close to the ground and I'm old LOL

Jan - beautiful roses! :-) Eleanor

I just love the color saturartion on 'Dublin Bay'.

Great job on the photos everyone. Keep 'em coming.

Some butterfly pictures from last weekend ... love those frittilaries ... they're so perky on the coneflowers!

I think this is a painted lady -- couldn't get very close ... on Sunrise coneflowers

Where's Waldo?

And some nice color combinations if you like purples and blues (I do!) ...

Russian sage and some nicotiana that changed color since reseeding from last year ...

Last one -- closeup of rudbeckia hirta Cherokee Sunset ... my fave ...

Wonderful rose, butterfly and color combo pics! Luv it!

thanks Eleanor & Candy..

crockny, great butterfly pics! love the color on Cherokee Sunset, and your blues

Thanks for the comments! I love seeing everyone's pictures ...

I love the butterfly pictures - and the "Where's Waldo" books. Kept the little one busy in an airport one time :-)
