Mickey and I made our way round the garden , before our PNW stormy week arrived . Nicotiana Slyvestris is aways the last late summer bloomer. |
Another late bloomer 'Plectranthus kameba' is much happier this time of year. I have to given this one plenty of water to keep it from wilting in the heat . |
Persicaria 'blackfield' the earliest and best Persicaria bloomer , for me anyway ! |
Aster 'Monte casino white' the last aster to bloom. |
When I started this garden it was Cosmos, Cosmos every where. Then they seemed to disappear….welcome back ! |
Mahonia 'soft caress |
I've been enjoying this combination of Carex 'blue zinger' and Cyclamen for weeks. Some how it survives despite it being a favorite spot for the dogs to snooze on top of all summer. |
A climbing Petunia I grew from seed this year. |
And finally an early spring time visiter . This Primula likes to give me a surprise visit this time of year ! Happy Bloom day ! Thank you Carol and more blooms here, |
Looking gorgeous, Linda. I have to have one of those asters...so lovely.
ReplyDeleteTamara, It's from Joy Creek !
DeleteThat Mahonia 'Soft Caress' is such a popular plant, I should try one.
ReplyDeleteAlison, I killed the first one I planted ;( This one seems happy.
DeleteYour Persicaria 'blackfield' is spectacular. What a fun primula surprise. Hope you and your garden make it through the storm unscathed!
ReplyDeletePeter, 'Blackfield' has been a very good plant for me, I think I found a good spot for it .
DeleteThat Persicaria is fantastic! And, I have a soft spot for white Cosmos too - they are so wonderful. Happy GBBD, Linda!
ReplyDeleteAnna, I'm going to have to sprinkle more Cosmos seed next year. I've just the one plant .
DeleteLove it...where did you find 'Blackfield'?
ReplyDeleteScott, I got it from Far Reaches a few years ago .
DeleteI think I spotted a few rosettes of N. sylvestris foliage out back. Love that stuff. Hope it flowers next year. Once established, it's petty good about returning and seeding around. Fingers crossed. You have a lot to love still hanging on.
