July and a Little WarmthWe are getting some heat...finally. Here it is July 9th and there has been a change in the weather. Naturiums look like this... nasturiums in July?? ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) Fern starts have become a real weed.. Lots of baby ferns of all kinds...a weed is a plant growing where its not wanted ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) Tomato plants look good, but Tomatoe plants with few bloosom...and fruit..forget it ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) we'll forget it or hope for a long mild fall. Even though I have been especially lazy this year (too many weeds to count), some flowers can't help themselves and with a camera in hand I went to find record their grace. one of the beds of old fashioned daylilies ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) pot of lewisia and sedums ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) honeysuckle beginning its summer long blooming for the hummingbirds ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) A little tea rose hiding under the silver leafed heather w/lamb's ears in back ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) a very old white rose ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) pink hardy water lily ( photo / image / picture from Jewell's Garden ) With a little careful camera placement there seems to be no weeds at all. :D This blog entry has been viewed 454 times

Very pretty! I love those Roses, especially the white one. Gorgeous!
Sorry you are having such a cool year, we are the opposite in TN...we had no spring. Went from our coldest winter to our hottest summer(& no rain). I think we had 5 days of spring. Glad you have some color now. The pink tea rose is a pretty color and I like your water lily too.
Thanks Kay and gfreiherr. Crazy weather, but probably much more the norm that the last 3 warm summers. Got spoiled. Sorry its been so hot in the midwest and east.
Hi Jewel, I seen your water lily it's beautiful I have some in a big flower pot,Is this the time of year they bloom? I haven't had mine but a couple of months and they are looking a little sad, What can I do to help them? Any help will be appreciated.Thank you Margie
I have some growing in large pots too. They do well but usually need a boost with commercial fertilizer tablets the 1st year or 2. If you have them planted in soil remember the tuber is planted like an iris above the soil line.
I'll try to tell more when i'm home. Login or register to leave a comment. |
