Garden Photos of '09.....#21

Fern, June and Halcyon.

Last - Physo Summer Wine.

O wow. HH my mini and small hostas just arrived from ViolaAnn so I do have some that are in leaf. Ok this will be a giggle cuz I'm sooooo far behind you all but there were some luvlys today ^_^ Violas always every present and cuz I luv them I take pics.

Here's the clemmie stolwuk gold. It's a little more limey than yellow leafed but I thought that would be its way. May be more yellowy as it ages.

I luv the new bright green growth against the winter purple of the berginia

Dicentra coming on strong as always. Are they androids?

My first dahlia blooms of the season. Of course I'm so misty it's blurry (sniff)

I tried (badly) to capture all the blossom buds on the MayDay tree. It will be 50 feet of white in a few days. I'll take a pic of that.

Sutherland carragana

moutain ash

tulipa tarda

tulipa pretending to house a spider (not Sam though. Sam has disappeared sigh.)

berginia bloom that got froze still valiantly trying to give a show. This was my fav today cuz I adore valiance ^_^

dicentra just hanging

Interesting new heuchera seedlings. Maybe a carmel?

The heuchera seedling I'm most excited about. I don't know if you can tell but the variegation is PINK! I luv when a seeding plan comes together! O ya like I planned it (snort! NOT!)

'Don't worry Dahlia. I will never leave you' says the Halo Dogwood that got butt kicked with winter breakage.

The advance of the lily of the valley. Little do they know that I have defenses under the shale to foil their advance. I can be evil if forced to defend myself against advances MRAAAHAAHAA (total evil laugh).

Here come the alium. A whirlpool to me.

breath taking Victor.... and yeah for all your growth Dnut... looks great so far!!!

tulipa definitely going to be interesing. I moved a whole bunch of new ones last fall and I'm not looking them up til they flower. I want to be surprised ^_^

Remember my mantra about the 'Wine and Roses' weigula that looked dead-as-a-door-nail. It worked ^_^

This is a really crappy pic but I like it so I'm posting it.

'Lady Diana' fully open.

prettiful primula to say goodnight

Very nice D-nut!!!

Great pics Victor and Dahlia!

Willie... It appears as though you have several supervisors. Great pic of them too.

Dahlia... its good to see so much going on for you finally. That clematis stolwuk gold is very pretty.

Victor, what kind of gardenia is that? I had to dig my fragrant pathways up and overwinter in the house...and by doing so I have a BLOOM!!!! YAY!!!!! Take pic tomorrow...or should I say later today. ☺

It sort of looks as thought it might be Gardenia Kleim's Hardy. But, maybe not.

Hi everyone
I'm just going to push in here and say I'm jealous of your Stolwtjks gold Dnut.
How old is it
How do you have it planted,deep? w/compost?
I sweat bullits to buy 2 from Plant delights and one didnt have many roots on it so it dies and the other is growing but I'm not too hopefull.
We have clay here and I'm worried its not draining enough.
I planted with compost and potting soil mixed.
Of all the plants I have bought this year, these were the most expensive,I'd like to see the remaining one make a go of it.
When KoiGardens clem co-op peren co-op box gets here I'll have Clem Kiri te Kanawa to go with it.

I love these columbines.I cant remember the name,last years bluston sale.
Sorry theyre dark not much sun today
