Garden Photos - Part 33

ge the low growing sedum is sieboldii varigated #2 / sieboldi mediovariegatum - first saw it in either white farms or wayside - it likes sun - really very nice when it blooms - one of my favorites

Thanks Bill I' will look for it next season,thats definate.
Maybe Hallsons have it but they are pricey.

Great shots. Hope to get back out and take some on this great day. Deb, sweet pea has returned for me every year for four years now.

ge if you receive either of those catalogs it also has another "common" name it goes by.

Thanks I'll keep an eye out for it.

Here goes ,what I saw today.

Is this Royal Standard Hosta?
The blooms are different than the other fragrent one I have where the blooms grow up the stem. This hosta blooms in a bunch at the top.

long view of the other side of the shade garden

Just a few turning

Great pics everyone. Have had to try to catch up on all of the posts. Really like all the garden shots. With the little rain my garden is starting to look like late sept more than the end of aug. Here are a few things still doing a decent job even with the lack of any good rain.
Echinacea 'Hope' is still sending out new blooms.

Delphiniums are still blooming too.

The roses are really liking the cooler temps and deepen in color. 'Molinuex'

'Christopher Marlowe'

The turkeys seem to be right at home, lounging in the shade.

and finally this guy makes everything out there pay attention when he is so near.

Nice little hawk there!!!
Are the turkys harmfull?
They look like tourists.

There are four of them that seem to think they own the place. So far they have not done any damage to the garden. They stay out back except to go roost in the tall trees out front at night. They eat pretty well by the bird feeder and then lounge on the grass in the backyard for a while. Most of the day they are near by in the woods and return for supper and bedtime in the late afternoon.

Yeaah like I said tourists.
they sure are funny

ge nice stone path by your shade garden!

ge, Those hostas look like either Royal Standard or Plantigenea. All the Plantigenea hostas scapes grow like that. Can you get a closer shot please. BEV
Grow like this you mean?? This is Guacamole

I have all three, plus Aphrodite. Lots of fragrance these days!

Yes the stems are like your gouachamole ,flowers at the top of the stem.
My gouachamoles are not big enough to flower maybe next year.
I like the Royal Standard title so it stays.

Here is one of my Royal Standards and I want Aphrodite someday. BEV oh! and Venus and on and on!!!!

Love mine and its scent.

Pink Diamond living up to its name.

Lemon Queen.

Abelia.

Castor.

Heptacodium starting to bloom. Karl Foerster grass is behind.

Oranges & Lemons and lavender still going strong.

Do you have a shot of the whole abelia? Love that one.

I'll try for one. I think I missed the best of the bloom. Just noticed it today.

ok Al or any of you dahlia lovers need to set me straight.... did I mix up the tags at planting time... or did they send me the wrong ones
