OH, Thank~You sooooo very much Tammy,
that is so very kind of you....

My husband and father~in~law are doing
their research and finding one with the
biggest pixels, and yadda~yadda~yadda!!!!
As soon as they come up with thier score cards
tallied up, they'll find one...

It's just I have things I wanted to take pictures
of, but I can wait..
I would much rather have your's taken and get to see your flowers!!! but Thank~You again for the offer...

I' glad your going to get a really good one. I'd have probably just asked Bill. He takes such great pictures he's got to have a good camera.

Well I'll keep snapping pictures. I'm sort of waiting for the dianthus to do something. They have flowers on them but they are little tiny white ones. After the bud opens do the petals grow or something? Cause what I got ain't like the pictures lol. Story of my gardening career so far lol. Maybe I should take a picture of what I have and let you see what I am talking about huh? I am so slow sometimes. Ok headed out to the garden to snap pictures lol.

Sorry Tammy,
BUT I AM THE QUEEN OF SLOWWWWWWWWW,
SO SLOW SOMETIMES I'M BACKWARDS!!! :p :p
I am still out there planting my vegetable garden.
Just got some cucumbers in *lemon one's??*
and some hubbard squashes..
Yesterday got the acorn and zucchini's in...

Gotta finish the cuke's... and work on the cantaloup's(sp?)
Still can't figure out where I'm putting the decapitated sunflowers yet

Then it's the Swiss Chard going in next,
and more cuke's, pickling one's...

And I haven't even gotten to my mater's yet!!!
UGH!!
Back outside!!!

Manhot Sweet Yellow Hibiscus Duckie sent me the seeds for this one. flowers/Manhot.jpg" alt="[Linked Image]" class="post-image" style="height:auto!important;max-width:100%!important;"/>

That is absolutely gorgeous!!!!
I love that yellow...
Ahhhhhhhh, Thanks for sharing that one!!!

I plan on growing herbs around the birdbath next year.

Also the arbor was for Kiwi plants that died.

Well I bought a piece of ground behind the my house and this ground had a burnt house on it. I tore the house down and had a lot of brick and concrete blocks up do something with.

I still have some blocks left, but the brick will be used for a patio of some type.

I have some more picture at:

My Garden

JV that hibiscus is absolutely gorgeous - and it looks huge! Are they huge? The flower, that is. I know nothing about them, obviously I thought about getting some to plant among the Hollyhocks I plan on planting (LOL That was a mouthful!) Thanks for posting that!

Amigatec,
We're all meeting at Amigatec's house
and raiding his garden!!!
Looks like you've got a ton of stuff...

Whens' the corn ready/??
I'm hungry for some!!
And it looks goooood!!!

And I really like that arbor!!!
Great idea!!

JV, that flower is gorgeous. Yellow - my favorite color.

Someone tell me what to do with the dill that's come up. I got the seeds from someone of this forum.

Hi MaryReboakly the blooms are about 4 inch across I did not measure. I got this close up as I was trying to show the inside color as well as the outside color. Deep inside is a dark red gets lighter toward the top. I love Hibiscus and can never get enough of them or roses'.Coleus is also a favorite.
Jimmy

Dill I like it in chicken noodle soup. A beloved boss and friend used to make it for me when I didn't feel good but needed to keep right on working.

BEAUTIFUL,JV!

The corn is ready NOW!!

I fixed 4 for supper the other night and have 6 more ready to freeze.

I need to go out and weed.

Some more pics...

Cannas


Zinnias


Glads


Mexican Petunias


Don't you jusy LOVE this time of year!

G-Mom

JV - I love the softness of the yellow in that flower! You grew that from seeds??? WOW!

G-mom - as always... just gorgeous!

Here's my first cactus bloom of the year -
Cindy.... how could you not love these plants?!? I'll take any off your hands that you want to get rid of!


and some baby pink dwarf lilies - gotta love 'em!

Beautiful flowers JV, G-Mom, Lynne!! I can't wait to see if any of the seeds I sprinkled not too long ago, do anything. It was packets of babies breath, red poppies, and shasta daisies.

Meg

I'm living vicariously thru your flowers
everyone!!!
Thank~YOU!!!!!

G~mom, I love those Mexican Petunia's,
never saw a real~time photo of them,
love that purple!!!!

Well lets see the glads have produced more leaves so far. ahhem.

Lynne those baby pink dwarf lilies of yours where did you get them? What climates are they good for? How much water do they require? Questions, Questions, Questions. They are very pretty. This from the lady who professes not to like pink lol.

Hum I didn't know the cannas came in yellow I may have to look into that too. They sure would look nice mixed in with the red ones I got this year.

Thank you all for posting your pictures it is so cool. Even if I do have to repeat my self-discipline mantra everytime I look. No I am not buying anymore plants, No I am not buying anymore plants .....
hehehehe

Don't worry, T. I only have about 5 of my million that are blooming either. Some others have shot up stalks...most are just leaves - they'll come! I just planted some bulbs last week - I can't believe they're sprouting already! Those babies came up fast. I wasn't even sure they were any good...they've been sitting for a few months

Wish I had more pretties to post, but I'm fairly limited - it's so nice to be able to see everyones stuff!

It gives me something to look forward to. When the soil is all amended just the way it should be and the weed trees are all gone and the poison oak is history and the terracing is all done and the plants are all planted.

What did you say about the lottery? lol. Ones as good as another I think. Boy is there a lot more to do. I could get out there this evening and do something. But I am still having lazy day syndrome.

someone asked me to post a picture of the entire butterfly bush in my yard. sorry it took me too long, but here it is.

My gosh that's a beauty!!!!
How old is that puppy???

Its almost the first of July and I still have pansies blooming-- is that normal?? Especially here in the deep south???
I've never planted any before so I don't know what they are supposed to do...
