    They are all beautiful Netty. Glad you posted the False Blue Indigo - I have it in bloom too but couldn't remember the name of it.

    Netty, It is so cool to see everybody else's gardens. Thanks for sharing, yours are truly lovely. I've seen the loose strife several times this past week, but didn't know what it was. Thanks for the info. :)

    Netty it all looks great! I love the Lupine. I MUST buy myself a red one :-D I've hinted to my mom, my sister and my husband, they aren't catching on :rolleyes:

    Wow Netty--those are some flowers! I especially liked the poppies, pinks and the blue oat grass.
    You must be quite pleased with your garden so far, eh?

    WOW, what beautiful blooms. I'm going to check out that Garden Loose Strife to see if it will do okay here, I need a tall yellow plant.

    Thank You :)
    Toni, the Garden Loose Strife is only about 2.5 feet tall. It just looks taller in the photo.

    OO Netty what a lot of lovely flowers you have in your garden. Those red poppies are beautiful and lilac is one of my all time favourites. The colour of that lupin is really striking.

    Note to self - sow some lupins next year.

    Your blooms are all wonderful. :stew2: I especially like the poppies and the blue oat grass. The bees and I both like the scent of honeysuckle. :D

    Netty's blooms! Yay! You've got so many pretty things... The blue colors are really catching my eye today! Netty, I'd love to see how your beds are set up -- sometime would you show them from a distance?
