Garden Photos - Part 39

This is my neighbors but it drop over the fence into my yard. She said it's a Burning Bush but it's shaped like a smallish tree (15-20 feet tall and wide). I always thought of it as a shrub.

Whatever it is, I like it.

Tricyrtis Lightning Strike

Dahlias still blooming but looking paler.

Yarrow foliage

Dyane, nice purple combo.

I second the motion about you all entering the photo contest. We certainly have some talented photogs here.

Nice shots, Dyane. I like the last one best.

Thanks Jan & Victor. Victor, no one said anything but I thought "pressed vase" was pretty funny.

Thanks Dyane. How's the baby?

She's wonderful. Her little personality is starting to emerge. Smiley and cuddly, so cute. She's laying next to me sound asleep and cooing.

Wonderful! Hope she's letting you sleep better.

She still gets up about 2 or 3 times a night but now she's going back to sleep sooner so it's gotten better.

I love all the late Glads!

Dyane, It's so good to hear that the little one is doing well.

Victore, I love the pond pic!

Thanks for the well wishes all, the hip is getting better very quickly.

JoAnne, it's good to know about your hip. But sad to know that you've had to have them both done. talk about an Ouch!!! So far they are not mentioning the "r" word (replacement), which is a really good thing.

Bill, thanks for the info on the AM JM. I will keep that In mind. I really think that I want an Am, However any size that I would get would look teensie compared to the aureum. Oh well, such is life!

Thanks Shelly. Even some annuals are showing foliage color.

Miscanthus.

Cotinus Grace - one of my favorites.

I liked the poofy grass you had last year !
Miscanthus sinensis 'Graziella' - Graziella Maiden Grass

A few monkshood shots.

Closer.

Backlit.

Finally got a daytime shot of my bashful frog.

Very dramatic shots, Victor. Wish I could grow Monkshood but I don't want to poison the kiddos.

Thanks, Dyane. Gotta watch those kiddies! Actually, many common garden plants are toxic to some degree. You just have to stay on top of them.

If they're toxic why would you want to stay on top of them???? hee hee

I'm toxiphilic!

Yes - you must watch for those toxic plants. You never know when those kids will want to try sticking something in their mouths ugh!!! I still have that problem and mine at 5 yrs and 3 yrs.

Hey did anyone watch that movie called The Happening? Has to do with plants....silly movie though. I won't give it away LOL

that's a cool miscanthus pic victor.

nandina

RC, your first is gorgeous!

RC That first shot should go into the picture contest.
Absolutly beautiful.

I agree with you, ge1836. RC, nice work. Gorgeous!

Great shot, Shelly. Sumac?

Man...... you folks on the eastern side are great, maybe I need to move? lol.

Yep, it's a sumac Victor. Good call.

The funny part is that I know that I posted a third picture....... Now where did I put it???hmmmm.....

My wildflower garden still going strong....

mums

My zinnias are still coming out with some great different colors.

looking good jen

I had a couple more pics of this gorgeous blue wildflower (have no idea what is, have to look it up) but the pic just kept coming out fuzzy.
Also this huge zinnia that just bloomed at the edge of the same garden, same thing happened with that shot. My camera is starting to tick me off.
