What's blooming today? # 8

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

Thanks Victor, not really a personal campaign - but there is plenty of activity with coneflowers in perennials so maybe...

Donnie - What did you say you were paying for a hired dahliahand?LOL

Nice night shots, I liked Dave's noid dl, Kim's Torenia and Pixie's yellow trumpet.

Super pics. I'm really liking the Helenium. Of course, Celeste's daylilys have prompted me to buy some more. They arrived just before I went of vacation and seem to be happy in their new 'digs'.
My Elephant ear has finally made its presence known.

I planted Blackberry Lily this year, but it probably won't bloom until next. My Candy lily is putting on a nice show..

I really like Ruby Tuesday Al...they catch my eye every time I see them. I may have to put them on next years list.

Anita, are you saying I am the reason for all your new daylilies? Glad to enable you! Here, I'll help some more!!
'Autumn Serenade' was much better this morning.

I have no idea what this is and the photo doesn't do it jutice. It's very dark with a slight white line accenting the edges that i just couldn't capture.

great shots pixie

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Pixie - I just can't get enough of your DL pics.....They are all so gorgeous! Like Anita, you have motivated me to move 3 of my lesser seen DLs to a spot of more prominence in my new and expanding ....:).... potting shed's garden.

Do any of you ever find that you start out small, but just can't leave it alone???

Victor - I'm with you in supporting Al's Coneflower petition!! I think it's a great idea.

Al - nice helenium! As to my wanting a "dahliahand"......Oh, would it were possible in retirement to afford such luxuries!! I killed myself this morning, but it sure felt good to sit and survey the results when I was finished in the new garden!!

Anita - great elephant ear shot....and I really like the combo with the other plants in your pic. Very nice, everyone! What a gorgeous day it is here in NH? I hope you are all enjoying your Sunday as much as I am!!!

Pixie, love you purple and white together. My purple is going strong, but the white liatris pooped out.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Venu...just the opposite here....the purple bloomed first, white last.

Jersey Shore, NJ(Zone 7a)

Pix, I should have been more specific......the white died :(
