Garden Photos of '09.... #18

Nantucket, MA(Zone 7a)

Redchic01, I will see if it likes me well enough to divide it at some point. I got it from Bluestones during their 1/2 price sale last year. Sweet girls, but very naughty in the garden. They never dig the holes where I want them!

Victor, maybe a hummer come summer.

Here is a nice geranium 'espresso' which has great leaf color and a that nice perennial tulip 'Little Beauty' and the crab just starting to pop. Patti

Don't give up on the hummers Patti. They will find you and once they do they will always come back.

Yeah, could be something like what you said Jen. It makes more sense given that he was falling the tree as the saw would've been at the right angle. I always tell my crew to throw stuff at me if they want my attention and to never come within 20' of me. However, one very clueluess individual who had no concept of saws, momentum, or gravity was standing right behind me once when I turned around. I'd released the throttle, but the chain hadn't come to a stop yet. I missed one of his legs by about six inches. It wouldn't have been horrible since the throttle was off, but it would've been bad enough. It did scare him enough that he learned to stay. Although, i think my yelling at him the moment after it happened, may have been what actually got the point across!

Yeah, I think that's what scared him!
I think that leafing out is the right word. And it's a very pretty green at that.

this is why the nickname on this salix hakuro willow is flamingo...

The azalea I bought at home depot that I have yet to go back and find the name...I'm hoping it's the new encore series, it's still blooming and has new buds.

DH just took a deep breath & planted the coleus. Hope not too early as one was suffering so we decided to go ahead. Correct name of yellow dwarf iris is 'Baby blessed. Parents: Baby Snowflake X Twice Blessed..

I'm a little worried about Sam. He is very attached to this one bloom and only hangs on that one. What will he do when its spent?

New viola seedlings. Flowers are a little bigger than hearts ease/johnny-jump-ups but they will be smaller if/when they come back.
