I don't recall if I have shown this video yet or not ( I have the feeling that I have)--I looked back a few months with the search utility, but did not find it. If I have already shown it, please excuse me. I took this foto to show some of the different blooms that I have on the 'Christmas Cactus'--a pity that I had waited just a little too long. Some flower pics from the past summer. I hope this brightens-up your day a bit. --Perhaps others will add a few pics for you as well--
After taking a look at the back garden today with its leafless trees and lack of colour your photographs gave me a real lift. Thank you for posting them as they have definately cheered me up. :-D
Gorgeously brilliant colors. There is some color in my garden but certainly nothing to get excited about. What is the flower in picture #6? I should know it or maybe not since I can't come up with the name. But it is a wonderful color.
Adorable blooms! I love them all and am profoundly glad that computer screens can't be worn out by me staring at them. I also have a feeling you've shown the video before, but it doesn't matter!
What does it matter if you have shown it before?? I love looking at it again (although I really don't remember it). Such beautiful color... really loving photo #6. Such vibrant color. Thanks for sharing your color!
Lovely. The Cactus are so delicate and I could feel myself wandering down those garden paths. Thanks again, GG
Beautiful colors Sjoerd.Your garden is just wonderful and your blooms are outstanding.I don't have many blooms after our 32 degrees and heavy frost last week.Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your beautie.
Just what I needed to see today Sjoerd...color! Everything is white here. What sort of Echinacea is that in the 4th photo? Your Dahlia's are gorgeous too.
Thanks you all for your very warm response to the fats. NETTY: That is the Echinacea purpurea 'Razzamatazz' TONI: If you mean the foto of the flower with the bumble bee on it, then it is Echinacea purpurea. If you mean the one before it (red flowers with daisys) they are Dahlia 'Arabian Night', as I recall. Those dahlias are sublime. They look and feel almost like velvet. They are the darkest red I have ever seen. Actually this foto is a bit overexposed and they are much, much darker than they appear.
They are quite lovely to see in real life. I really hope these come back next year...it's been so wet lately. Fingers crossed. I hope that you can find them, over there. If you can't...let me know and I will help you look.
