Garden Photos - Part 19

Thanks Celeste! I'm still on a high after meeting you. :-)

Is a ditch lily the same as a roadside lily? I have some that creep under my fence from the roadside. They make me laugh just because of their tenacity and height. I have one blooming that is as tall as I am.

Yup, that's them!

Tuscan Sun... oh I love this rose

love that lilly... so orange!!!

Begonia... can't believe how pretty she is...

Isn't it a great orange color? If people didn't think of them as ditch lilies, they might be admired more!

That's a beautiful begonia Kass.

both pretty Kassia

Does "Chianti" go well with fava beans?

If the beans are drowned in a good marinara sauce on home made pasta.

I know it's a weed, but it's in my neighbor's yard, and it looks pretty right now. Plus the monarchs like 'em!

They smell wonderful, and I now have 4 Monarch cats to watch grow!

This one is for Kassia. These are the only roses I have - I know you'll love them.

A wonderful DGer gave me this. She called it a night bloomer, but I don't know it's true name. It is stunning!!

monarch cats?

That is a beautiful rose Kassia. I will have to wait for my hollyhock until next year. I only planted it this year. I have to remember to do more see next year too.

My hydrangea is looking good this year. I'll have to take some pictures of my other ones too..

nice come back Victor:) don't want anyone else weeding in my yard - they will either step on something or do half the job.
Anyway.........unknown clem

Nice collection of small trees.

I need more clems! Loved all the pics-Tuscan Sun is a beauty. Here is an annual poppy.

And a brown-toned AL--would look good with rosa Hot Cocoa.

And some pink AL's.

Love the "shoes"

I remember them from last year, Andy. Do leave them outside all winter??

Like that Wolf, Bill. Very nice, Robin. The lilies are great now. Here's one of mine. Much deeper and darker than appears here.

I like this DL, whichever it is!

Perle d'Azure on my Pink Diamond (buds forming) hydrangea.

I have that same pest on my Hibiscus. Thanks for the ID. I keep going out and squishing all the caterpillars.

LOL, the sneakers stay out all year. Some Chicks fall off and some Hens don't make it but they fill in in no time. The sneakers are falling apart, though.
Here they are in February '07.

Maybe you should check the hardiness before purchasing footwear!

For the question way up above - Monarch cats = caterpillers. I "raise" them, thanks to the hummer/butterfly forum!
