Wow Sheri, awsome photos!!!

Here's some of my wildflowers again. While we were gone this week, the yellow ones opened up.





2 pretty poppies




And I'm thinking, since the rest is my veggies, maybe I should post those pics in the veggie thread..

Meg

Is it ok if I share a few photos of my granny's flowers? I think she's got some really beautiful stuff in her yard! I'm kinda jealous of her flowers...

Meg

Here are pictures I took in my nocturnal garden of all of my different varieties of Tennessee Nocturnal Fireflowers.

Hehe.. cool flowers thornius. Thanks for sharing those.

Meg

Great flowers but my puter is having a breakdown. Could you maybe only put 3 or so pictures in each post?

Ok, I posted a few photos in the veggie thread, but I think I've shared veggie pics here before too, so I'll put up the ones I just now took. The corn.. some of it, is taller than me already. I'm 5'3".

Here's a view from my deck-


And a different angle, a view from the corner of the yard-


My tent of cucumbers-


My tepee of beans (and corn)!


And a side view of some of my tallest corn-


Meg

And here's a couple of flowers too..

my purple wave got a lot of blooms on it..


one of my mums is trying to burst fully open already!


Ok, that's it, for now.....

Hey Pheonix, I have that 1st one there that you're holding & don't know what it is.. Weezie id'd it for me in the mystery section. It's Catchfly. Isn't it purty!?

Meg

oh thats catchfly!!?? it's very purty. thanks for letting me know. i love the color. is that the only color they come in,that you know of??

when i googled it, it looked like there were other colors too.. but mine was about the same color as yours I think.. a kinda, hot pink?

Meg

yes, hot pink/magenta, along that line of color.
i wish i knew what all the wild flowers i have growing are. i cant find the seed packet, that would help a little, but then i wouldn't really know what i was looking at either ah ha ha ha ha

pssst.. pheonix, that's why I posted my wildflower pics in the mystery thread!

I don't know any of the stuff that came up. Well, ok, I recognized some.. knew what the poppies were.. but I think that's it! :rolleyes:

meg

really the mystery plant thread huh i'll have to go look
yeah i know what some are but the rest are killing me just dying to know

I love this thread!!!

Phoenix and Meg... I was just about to post this picture, when I saw and read your posts about the bright pink flower - I have it too!



And here's my lacecap BLUE hydrangea this year - looks like I'm going to have to fertilize it next year to bring back the blues - it's trying to turn pink this year!


I'm so enjoying everyone's pics - keep up the good work!

Sold! Lynne, I'm addicted to hydrangeas - though I only have one for now - I think you sold me on the lacecap. Is there a specific name of it, or are all lacecaps...well, just called lacecaps? And how old is yours there? It's gorgeous!

Mary ~

I think mine was just called blue lacecap hydrangea - I got it on a 1/2 off sale about 6 years ago or so, and even then it was $16. I do keep it cut back so it fits in the small garden it's growing in.

I'll try to find the tag tomorrow for you. My tags are scattered in the garage, so I'm not sure if I actually will be able to, but I'll look.

Meg,

What a green thumb you have. That is so incredible compared with what you started with such a short time ago. Amazing. Great job!

Wow, everytime I come to this thread, there's
bigger plants and even more gorgeous....

Okay, let's test the memory...
beeeeeeeeeeeeeep, times' up...
I forgot already..
gotta go back and peak.........

****Sheri,
Your flowers are beautiful
I love the red phlox..
And the Black~eyed~Susan's.... you've got some plants there for sure..........

****Meg, love the bachelor buttons patch....
Very cute...
And you veggie garden is growing leaps and bounds everytime I see it...

p&p
lacecap BLUE hydrangea WOW WHAT A GORGEOUS plant
i'm going to see if i can find one. all the plants look phenominal everyone!!!! i'm jealous

Everyone's flowers are so pretty. Meg yours are always beautiful don't know how you do it. Phoenix no matter what those wildflowers are called they are beautiful. You all make me jealous mainly that blue Hydrangea will look for one here to send to my sister she love them. Mine this year are my first but not my last. Have a friend has some blue Hydrangia's don't know if they are the same or not but he promised me a cutting this fall.Thornius if those flowers look like that with the naked (hope I can use this word)eye I would love to have some . Would make everyone setup and take notice.

First calla lily of the season. Asiatic lilies are nearly finished and Stargazers (my favorite) still to come.
