Very nice! They would look great together with the blue foliage of that fothergilla. The blue ones need some shade from afternoon sun, so part shade is fine, as that clematis can take as well.
Garden Photos - Part 41
I put the clemmie at the south east corner of the house. There's a dwarf lilac (3 feet) that is getting the full south exposure exposure there. I thought the fothergilla would do well with the easterly exposure. The other option is to put it on the fence beside the bird bath at the back of this pic http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=5149486. Might be too shady though. Only gets a couple hours sun in the morning there.
LOL ok I've hjacked the thread into "Let's Plan for Dahlianuts Fothergilla" LOL oops
Southeast should work. You can always move it if you see it burning, etc.
Thanks JoAnn.
Victor and Bill, you two are two funny. It's great.
Thanks so much Willie, you're awesome!
Dahlinut, good luck with that combination! It should be pretty.
I have a few more pictures from this weekend, taken at a variety of places.
you would think that it would be hard to garden if you live next to a display garden, but this maple is a neighbor to the display garden.
a sasnqua camellia, 'hana jima' I think
this is my new little maple, acer japonicum 'fairy lights'. It has those nifty cut leaves, but is still an upright (although small) maple.
my anemone
Wow - gorgeous JM! I might have to get that. Hee hee.
taken later
lol, that's what I said too. it's small enough, so as to fit in your yard Victor without crowding your display garden.
I love the orange colors
......
can never resist another bee shot.
Great shots! Love the leaf one.
Dahlianut - here's a shot of the Blue Shadow foliage from June.
droooooooooooooooool Thanks Victor. That's gonna look awesome with the clematis who should be gold at that time. Here's the sunset tonight
wow, that's a beautiful sunset dahlia!
Thanks redchic. Soon we will start getting Chinook arches but it's not cold enough yet. It's not really spectacular looking like northern lights but still something I've learned to appreciate since I moved here. I haven't seen them anywhere else I've lived. I will post one when it happens.
that would be great Dahlia! I would love to see a picture of a chinook arch. I've never actually heard of such a thing (will look it up though) but it sounds really interesting even if it's not as bright as the northern lights. I'm looking forward to the pictures!
Gorgeous sunset!
Ok I know what Chinook dogs are I have 2 but what are Chinook arches ?? Off to look it up......
Now I know, cool. That is a beautiful sunset!!
dahlianut I just opened your clematis photo and have to have it for behind my Agastache Blue Fortune on the west side of the house. What fantastic color.
Should look great with the purple blues and Ligularia Desdimona.
ooooooo dear I'm affraid I am in the wrong zone for the clematis.
Also looked in plantscout and there arent any nurseries who carry it.
big dissapointment.
Gardenwatchdog doesnt list the Canadian nursery.

I want that clematis too, JoAnn, it would work here.
OhhBoy I hope your right.
I have the Garden imports nursery flagged. They are the only place I found after googling and plantscout turned up nothing.
that clematis is really pretty. I definitely agree with that one.
the last of the bunch
I can't remember if I posted this one from last week or not.
I'm thinking I might see if I can dry the sunflower deadheads and make something of them.

It's hard to run out of leaf pictures this time of year.
That sunflower dead head is a doozie
Nice pics RC, I like the sunflower and the color in the leaves.
haha.... never thought to describe it that way, but definitely!
Thanks debilu, and good morning to all the early birds.

This is what I love about fall. Nice photos, everyone. The colors are amazing. Love the sunset, Dahlia.
I love this little sempervivum. It's a pure olive green in the warm months. In fact, it's name is 'Olivette'.
that's cute!
Mornin', RC
my own little bit of autumn
Very nice shots, Shelly.
a few drupes on the barberry
I got a kick out of these mushrooms. they kind of marched right out of the garden bed
