Here's a few shots from my yard yesterday Phlox Subulata This one is "Candy Stripe" and "Scarlet Flame" "Emerald Blue" is what the tag said-looks like Emerald Pink to me! Lamium "Herman's Pride "Silver Beacon" Aquilegia Queen of the Night Close up Alyssum Apple Blossoms
Awwww Netty you have some really lovely plants in your garden. I like the phlox and alyssum, tulips, aquilegia - oh heck I want them all!!!!
Bless your sweet heart, Netty. That is so thoughtful of you....and the pics are super--a real feast for the eyes. It's such a pleasure scrolling up and down and down and up. I have never seen yellow Alyssum, only ther purple and the white. It looks stunning. I see that you have lots of phloxes. I like them too, but so far I only have the taller ones. I just threw-away three buckets full of pure white ones when I cleaned up the front garden. That 'Queen of the Night' is a movingly beautiful thing to see. You must be tremendously pleased with her. I guess you shouldn't be surprized or too disappointed with the 'Emerald Blue'--the name is a contradiction in terms anyway. chuckle Well, the rest are also really nice to see as well. The Aquilegias are very beautiful. I had the same ones for a couple of years...but this year, they didn't come back. :'( You are doing such a fine job with your blooms, I hope there will be more as the summer goes on.
Your blooms are lovely! My "Queen of Night" let me down this year, so I'm glad you're sharing yours. I've tried the yellow alyssum, but it doesn't like me. The phlox are great, and so are the lamium and aquilegia.
You have some really beautiftul flowers! I do like your phlox quite a bit. I have never seen a "queen of the night" before. What a unique flower.
"Silver Beacon" is my favorite. The picture almost looks like it was airbrushed. Love its foilage. Actually they are all beauties. Thanks for sharing.
They are all gorgeous. I love the phlox, I've only got the tall ones. Columbine (Aquilegia) is one of my favorites but then again, I really do love them all. Anything that flowers always catches my eye. Thanks for sharing.
Netty, I bet you have the prettiest yard in the neighborhood. Beautiful blooms! I'll trade you some critters for your blooms
Lovely pictures and fab flowers. I find it funny how with you, you are enjoying what are over here in the UK might not expect to see in our gardens until July and August, plus you are enjoying tulips which have more or less finished for us here. Just lovely!
