Turtlehead - a bit out of focus.
Spent pokeweed (after the berries are eaten) looks nice with the turtlehead.
NOID tea and callicarpa.
I have only one flower pic to add...lol.
These are heirloom glad flowers I received from a trade with a fellow DG'er.
Summer Wine and Peve Minaret bald cypress.
Hosta bloom and callicarpa. The hosta is a richer lavender than the pic shows.
Good morning Victor! This is the only thing blooming in my yard.....still in the 100's here!
"Bing Crosby" rose....
Hagley Hybrid returning.
Hi Thom and Audrey. Big looks b-b-beautiful! Last for now - a pennisetum.
Victor - I love the callicarpa! Just beautiful - need to go look it up.........
California Poppy? I think it's confused!
confused in a very beautiful way though.....
My white california poppies never stop blooming till frost.
This one just opened for the first time last week!
Very nice. Enjoy them - they won't be lasting very long! Nice color for fall though.
The seeds were in a wildflower mix I threw out into the pumpkin patch this year.
This was also in it.
and these....
and this pretty little zinnia.
One of the pumpkin....
and another.
Behind the pumpkins are a few rows of sunflowers.
Toad lilies on the side of the house.
'Atom' is the name I think. It's a hardy glad, this one actually made it through a Maine winter ! If it comes back next year i'll really be impressed!!
A duck down at the lake....I swear he's checking himself out in his reflection! lol
Sorry Victor, but I have to show the color of this MG...I can only pray this one re-seeds it's self.
Any one of these in fact.
Where do you get these beauties? I think it's time to break down and get some next year. Did you start the seeds indoors?
Thom the glads remind me of candy corn!! Love them!
Victor the NOID tea and callicarpa look BEAUTIFUL together!
So many other beautiful pictures it is hard to comment on them all!! Lovely
There is such a thing as hardy glads!?!? I gotta get me some of those! I have so much to learn!!
boojum, I bought them off ebay last spring. A few I sowed in the house, the rest I direct sowed in the spring.

Hi Victor, thing's are going well here. Sorry, I'm just getting back to you, my father came down from Mass. for a visit this weekend. He's the one that gave me the gardening bug so a lot of time was spent poking around outside when the weather allowed this weekend. The baby will be one month old on Friday. She's doing great and we all seem to be adjusting to lack of sleep as best as we can!
Can't believe fall is pretty much upon us. Here's some purple Asters opening up.
Has anybody grown this Hydrangea?? I think the foliage is stunning!

Celeste, I just ordered and planted that about a month ago!
Oh lucky you! I've been tempted to order it but I keep telling myself no more plants!
Well, I have a shady area that I have been trying to get it to think it's sunnier than it is, and everything I planted there likes more sun, so this summer I decided to make it happier with just shade plants. I've started to remove most of my sun plants, and in their place have this new hydrangea. I saw it in a catalog, and it is the perfect size and color. I can't remember where I ordered it from, but the vendor is fabulous!
I have been eying that for years but have heard that it does not do very well (sorry Deb!). Debbie (rcn) tried it a few times and had no success. And she owns a nursery. Let us know how it works, Deb. Good luck.
Those MG's look real nice. If they don't re-seed I would be interested. I pulled up many Star of Yelta just this AM! Been seven or eight years since I planted it.
Here is a yellow leaf caryopteris.
Pocomoke crape along the pool deck.
