What's blooming? #14

way behind here - I like the purple Dome aster.

Jan - I could trade you some plants in the spring if you want - here is a full shot of the Harrington's Pink I have at my neighbors - hollyhocks are included with every order.LOL

Well all I can think of when I look at this thing is this must be a lot like what the cop saw when he found what she tossed out the car window. They did sew it back on, right? I know that any time you said the word severe around any people of the male persuasion for quite a while after that they would cover up, so to speak. :)

I remember Bobbitt becoming a verb!

Is that Bob-It?

'He got Bobbitted'.

Wow, Celeste - 6 brothers?!! You poor thing. Did you have both older and younger ones?

Who, Al?????

no Victor , all older.....dating was difficult to say the least.

I can only imagine! I'd hate to come to pick up a girlfriend and find SIX brothers and a father! Almost like Snow White!

Love your little growing Bobbitt there ngam.

Al (and anyone else) My hollyhocks came down with rust. This year I planted them 10' in from the street so there's constant air circulation. Actually, the ones closer to the street have the worst case of rust, but the others still have it. Last year, I know I planted them way too close to the fence.... help! I like them, but I don't like the durn rust.

Yeah, Victor, except the dwarves aren't as threatening.

That Grumpy guy...

ngam, I think that fungus is Willie Willie

Wonderful fall color folks. I'm impressed with the variety. Time to plan for next Fall.

Harper - the only remedies that I'm aware of are all chemical. I get the rust on my Hollyhocks, too. I've been pulling out all seedlings and will/might try the new ones next year in the hopes they won't get that hideous rust.

Wrong, Dave! You can't blame rust on my robust Willie Willie! Even my Lucky Ducky has larger flowers than just a few weeks ago.

Glad to know Im not the only one with rust on my HH...how do you get rid of it? Should I plant my HH is a different place next year?

Pirl that Lucky Ducky is adorable. You can't beat a nice big fat yellow flower to make you smile.

In a totally unrelated chuckle this am...viagra anyone?

Since I had my camera out, took a few snaps.

Donkey Tail sedum.

ngam - Pinky Winky looks good, not sure how much hydrangea room I have left otherwise.., very pleasant geranium pic there.


Alma next to Professor Kippenberg here.

I had him for calculus.

This zinnia from the California Giants mix does look like a dahlia Victor. I am amazed at how long it's lasted - this flower is over 2 weeks old and still fresh.

I teach the lessons around here so he has to listen now.

Litt'l shaver of a dahlia - Koinona

Another shot of the convolulus

Floopy new hydrangea - The Swan

Al I love that Aster combo!!!!!!

Calculus and Convolvulus in one thread! Man, are we good! I like the Koinona.

U kwazy man.

Pixie - I have October Skies to the right there - we'll see if I can smell that one ;) Hope it opens in a similar timeframe.
