Please join me for another walk through my garden.
I love this purple rose.
It has a very deep, intense aroma.
It's surrounded by blueish-white larkspur.
Larkspur comes in all different colors.
I love the different shades of blue.
And these self seed all over the place every year.
The seedlings will start coming up in the fall,
and they over-winter very nicely,
then they bloom in mid-April to late-May/ mid-June.
The red rose is a Mr. Lincoln
and is one of my favorites.
It has beautiful blossoms and a wonderful aroma.
The pink rose is Queen Elizabeth.
First vertical row on the left
is a mesclun mix.
Then a spinach.
Then arugula.
The horizontal rows in the middle:
Top row is dill (just germinating).
Basil in the middle.
Another type of spinach on the bottom.
Tall foxglove on left,
rose bush in back,
and the pink flowers are oenothera,
also known as Evening Primrose.
The other day when I was out weeding,
I found this little plant seedling.
I knew it was something
(It appeared to be some type of succulent.),
not a weed,
but I didn't know what it was
until I went to the plant sale at the Arboretum Saturday.
The Elizabethan Gardens
had ice plants for sale and the foliage looked exactly like this.
I don't know where the seed came from though.
I've never grown ice plant before,
but I'm pretty sure that's what it is.
A purple foxglove
with an orange gerbera daisy peeking through.
And here it is:
Correction...
ReplyDeletebut I didn't know what it was until I went to the plant sale at the Arboretum Saturday, AND XMASKATIE POINTED IT OUT TO ME.
And your freakin' larkspur and roses look fantabulous...bitch.
Can't tell from your pic, but are your heirlooms doing as well as your hybrid tomatoes? Mine are definitely not.
Hey, we had the same weather.
