What's blooming in Canada #2

Beautiful Rhodos. It must be a good year all over for Rhodos, they were very impressive here too, till the rains came and almost broke my bush to bits. The branches are starting to bounce back now though.

Here's a shot of Siberian Iris 'Pirate Prince' with Rock Soapwort (Saponaria ocymoides).

Double German Catchfly (Lychnis viscaria 'Plena') is only about 15" high. Showy little thing.

Alliums and the underside leaf of an Ornamental Rhubarb.

This was last week. Anemone lesseri and Phlox subulata.

Didn't realize there was a pink/lilac colour theme going on in all these pics! Well, here's another. Dwarf lilacs and Geranium phaem 'Samobor'.

Thanks Lilypon,
The Cranberry Ice Iris is huge this year!
and the Josephine has more blooms than ever.
In fact this year most all of my garden is doing the best ever.
Patience pays off, I guess.

Carol, your secret garden is beautiful this year, as always of course. I just love your C.Josephine and your Cranberry Ice Iris.
Christine

Hi Christine,
Thanks.
The Josephine is climbing up the arbour that you helped put up.

Very few apple blossoms this spring..but last year the trees were loaded with blooms. At least I won't have so many apples to clean up this fall.
Aren't the dwarf lilacs wonderful the fragrance is so much stronger than the standard ones.

I am waiting to see my pink poppie open..the reds are in full bloom now.
Happy Gardening,

Cheers,
Carol

I haven't been on much for at least a week and when I checked this thread now, there's SO many new photos! I'm going to be getting a camera of my own this fall so I'll be able to take as many photos as I want! YAY! And, instead of typing a zillion little comments, I'm just going to say I LOVE ALL YOUR PICS! Everyones gardens look great!
Since I can't take any pics of my own I'll just say what's on stage now in my yard - Oriental Poppy 'Brilliant', a gorgeous perennial salvia(name unknown), Daylily H. flava(gorgeous scent and they seem to like shade which is A+), canadian columbine, meadow rue, rock rose, shasta dasies and soon some annuals I direct sowed will be bursting into bloom. I have good hopes about this summer!
