The Astrantia, I think it's "Rubra": The Erodium: A small Hebe: I know what this is called in Norwegian, but can't find the scientific name for it. That leaf is so big: A small bush that lost it's tag: The blow-in orchid is looking good: Some aquilegia: The Allium giganteum. The flower heads are so small this year, probably because the bulbs have split. Last year we had three blooms, this year it's seven: I wonder if these lilies are going to grow taller than they were last year. They're my height already: After that tour you might enjoy to stretch out here: The hostas are really starting now, but they're still not looking their best.
Beautiful plants and colors. I had Allium one year but it never came back, that is a pretty shade of purple Oh a nice rest in the hammock would be great and a nice cold iced tea. I bet you really enjoy that spot.
Love what ya have blooming ! very pretty , in pics #13 and 14 do there foilage smell like garlic ?....i have some that bloom like that and there leaves smell like garlic ...i just never knew what there name was.
Thank you louisiana-blooms. You might have chives growing in your garden. Are the leaves round and hollow? They're an Allium too, Allium schoenoprasum.
If they're chives they are, but I can't say without a photo and a general description of the plant height etc.
heres 2 pics of the blooms ...the foilage really dont get that tall but the blooms do ....my blooms arent as full and pretty as urs
I don't think that's chives at all. It might still be some kind of Allium but I don't know it. Hopefully somebody else does.
Droopy, is your big leaf plant Gunnera manicata? LB, yours is Society Garlic Tulbaghia violacea. Here's a link: http://www.floridata.com/ref/T/tulb_vio.cfm
My, my, my...just look at that hammock. If ever there were an inviting sight...Just the kind of garden tool I need. You sure do have lots of nice-looking flowers showing their colours at the moment. Ther Alliums are looking particularly good. The array of Aquilegias are quite delightful to look at..in fact, the dark purple and white one I had this year as a blow-in. It is gorgeous. I wonder what that little bush with the white flower with it's purply heart is. That Astrantia is developing into a gorgeous speciman. I'd like to see that one when it's fully open. Well, I wonder what you wilol stun us with next, Droopy.
Oh Droopy, how wonderful your blooms are. I really like that blue aquilegia and the purple alium, although they are all beautiful. I like that little white flower you are sure of, it looks so delicate. Thanks for sharing.
