Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day (After)
What's blooming in the garden on the 15th of the month.
There is so much going on in the gardens, I needed an extra day to document it all, and ended up leaving some things out. The peony poppies are about pooped out while the yellow daylilies are coming on. A maroon daylily was handed out at a master gardener tour last year. Coneflowers are all over - purple, coconut lime, and a sundown series. Cleome is robust. Bachelor buttons are new for me this year and so are the yellow oriental lilies. Get a load of the production on the rudbeckia, nicotiana and cactus!

I'm v. jealous of your nicotiana sylvestris. Did you grow it from seed?
ReplyDeleteDoes it reseed?
I was too overwhelmed by the possibilities to even participate this month.
all looks lovely.

Love the hemerocallis and lilies in particular... wonderful photos! Larry
ReplyDeleteJane,
ReplyDeleteThese annually reseed themselves, originally from sylvestris, although I don't think they are exactly sylvestris, which has more tubular flowers and is taller. Maybe these are a parent? But I like them just as much.
These plants have been blooming a while because they overwintered. The reseeded ones are just starting to bloom.
Larry,
Thank you. I am becoming more fond of lilies each year and hope to try some orientals.
