dahlias... oh I am in love with dahlias....

morning glories... heavenly blue...

Eileen - a gorgeous orange dahlia!!!

more to come!!!!!!

i like the orange one too

Kassia - nice pics. The morning glories remind me of home. Mom always had morning glories climbing up the porch. She had a bar at the bottom along in front of the porch and hooks at the top that she tied strings to for the morning glories to climb up. Yes, Josephine is gorgeous (love to have that one) Eleanor

Great photos everyone.

Onewish, I like those box's, beautiful colors!

ngam, those rose's are lovely and so is your yard.

Al, love how you made that walkway, very nice!!

Here's a few that has opened in the last 2 days.

Kassia - Nice to see you back! I love your pretty postings! Zinnias are one of my very favorites too........and those dahlias are really tempting me!! I have a pot of morning glories, but I need to move them to get more sun. They are such pretty flowers.

Al wanted to say your gardens are just stunning! Very pretty! I also really like the walkway you have made....everything looks so neat and clean!

ngam beautiful gardens too! I just love seeing what people can do with plants!

Pixie - Very pretty collage to start the day! What is the name of the white/red ones in the bottom left corner??

Thanks for the compliments, I was a bit busy yesterday.

Looks great ngam, you have a lot of shade?

Kass - You have some dahlias! Looks good, Clemantine is sharp.

Looks good Pix, I think my dl show is over here.

Old standard dahlia - Kelvin Floodlight

Here's what's not growing, this hosta was diagnosed with HVX

Al, Your beds and lawn are perfect! You really keep things healthy & tidy. Very nice!
ngam and Kassia, great shots too.

Al I have always loved the color yellow of Kelvin Floodlight....it's a "Happy" color!
My DL show isn't over yet and my orientals are just getting started.

DonnieB~ I am trying to locate the name of that lily but im having a hard time. It's a short one....at least this year it is but I just planted it this spring so it could get taller. That is just 2 bulbs......can't imagine what kind of show I would of gotten had I planted more!!

This is 'Harbor Star" first time blooming in my garden.

Pretty cool Celeste. My lilies are all done too.

Not sure if I posted Penhill Watermelon yet.

Anita - How does your Henry Eilers look after being open a while?

here's mine

wow... love that lily!!! and that Penhill is really gorgeous... Steph sent me a Kevin Floodlight... not opened yet!!!

Al:

What an interesting 'look' that Henry Eilers has! It sure is different. But, I would guess that it's not what you were expecting it to look like?

Candyce - No that's what it looks like - it's a rudbeckia. Truly one of those 'what is that!' plants. Anita has seeds from it, just wondering how it looks now.


skippers are really fast - caught this one though

pixie i love the tango lily.... i ordered some last year red & black.... they sent a replacement because they were out of stock ::::grumble grumble:::: i complained and they are shipping them to me ... or as they say... this year
