Well, I have not been in this virtual garden in a while and I miss it! Especially Victor's photos. Here are some of my fave in the garden this year. Columbine and Euphorbia. I wasn't crazy about this waxy 'bine but when I transplanted it next to the euphorbia that changed!

great pix everyone.

southern willamette , OR(Zone 7a)

Thanks Victor. Great pics as usual. I love that 'witch of Endor' , it's a real show stoper!

Good (very Early) Morning Jo Ann!

Robin... I love the color of that azalea 'Baltimore Oriole'. It looks as though it has a nice fragrance too! Glad that I'm not the only one making friends with the weeds due to the rain! But, the rain was need, at least for us it was.

Abby... those are some lovely combinations. They're looking very good.

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

hi rc!
I ts dark and cold here.
I'm off to visit my sister and go to an annual mkt.run by the Amish.

Frost warning for last nite and tonight too. I'm tired of this,lets get on with the summer.

southern willamette , OR(Zone 7a)

I hope that you have fun today. That sounds very interesting. There's nothing of the sort like that here, just typical farmers markets. I believe that your weather is supposed to change soon!

southern willamette , OR(Zone 7a)

I hope that you are sincere that you want a return to summer Jo Ann! It looks as though you may have it by about Wed or Thurs!! Fortunately not a heat wave or anything like that.


Robin, I forgot to mention the green plant. I assume that you ment the last picture? it's a Ginkgo.

did you ever open the heliocopters and stick them on the bridge of your nose?

southern willamette , OR(Zone 7a)

uhhh..... not that I recall. But, that does sound interesting! we used to grab handfuls and take them up onto the roof to launch them. Then we'd time them to see who had the fastest one. It's probably obvious that we didn't have many neighbors to play with. lol

is that what you called them too? !

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

we sometimes called them"those maple twirlly things"
We were not scientific in those days.
You can split the seed casing and it was just sticky enough to spread gently and paste over the bridge of your nose.

southern willamette , OR(Zone 7a)

Maple twirly things is very descriptive though! And I might just have to try that sometime. not sure why. It just sounds funny.

I'm off to sleep for a bit! Have a fun day.

Here is what I now think is a weed...that I thought was pretty and planted a little piece 2 years ago. Look at it go! Argh

Here I have what looks a lot like Patti's Blue weeds (I think that was on this thread) - it's Phlox divaricta Lamphamii - spelling may be off.
