Garden Photos - Part 18

Top of the dawn redwood in late day sun.

Cleome.

SongsofJoy, I love those Japanese Irises. Light at Dawn is stunning! Do they really need to be planted in a boggy area or is regular watering adequate?

Beautiful pinks, Victor.
Hardy Gladiolus.

Dyane - I have had success with them even without regular watering (can never keep up - irrigation system is in the near future!) But none of mine are in full sun so that probably helps. Either way, I'd say they don't require boggy soil - just don't let them dry out for too long.

great pics!

Thanks everyone. I know what you mean Victor. I tried zooming in, but the picture wasn't as clear. That was taken with the macro...I moved in on him slowly and from behind

lovely everyone

Thanks Songsofjoy. I'll give them a try then.

Wonderful pics everyone. Love those dragonflies and hydrangea. Looking forward to my PDD echinacea blooming. Here's 'Hope' starting to fill out.

Toadstool I have never seen here before. Pretty color.

Great color and pattern.

It looks really viscous with those little serrated edges.

I think trellises would be nice, Jo Ann--break up the space a little. lovely photos folks--I especially liked the JI. Hope I can post a photo!

Finally found 1 file--this is a raspberry salvia--an annual---but I hope the hummers like it.
