What else do you grow?

We all love our lilies, but what keeps your garden going when the lilies are in their "off-season"?

Well...since you asked...

coneflowers

Gallardia

hardy AND non-hardy hibiscus

Oh yes, and some of you might remember how much I adore my berries!

Clematis are another love of mine...

Oh...and never ever forget my love for all named peony (well, *almost* all, Moby and Ticker..you know what I mean ;) Lol.

Here's 'Bartzella' lovingly called 'Bart' by me.

Moby..Is that a double datura?...Love it!=More seeds to buy...

I also grow clematis...This is Arctic Queen (appropriate for North Pole)

Salpiglossis (Painted Tongue)

As many dahlias as lilies...These are some of the last ones of last year

Lilies, Ageratum, Bells of Ireland and Lavatera...

Coleus

Asters & Goldenrod -arch

Fall Clematis and Cypress Vine

Gloriosa

Rudbeckia & Balloon Flower

This is such fun!

Yes, the datura is a triple. The one pictured is Purple Petticoats but I think all the purple varieties look pretty much the same. Love the little red stars poking up through the white clematis. Nice butterflypic Mags!

I've been playing with close-ups. This is Liatris ligulistylis

I found this site mentioned in another thread. You'll love it if you enjoy Fibonacci numbers ~ if you don't know what that means then you might want to start at the top of the page. About half way down the page deals with things found in nature and flowers in particular. http://www.mcs.surrey.ac.uk/Personal/R.Knott/Fibonacci/fibnat.html#petals

I find the spirals mesmerizing

I have lots of hardy hibiscus and think Kopper King is the most striking. The huge flowers are such a treat when most of the garden is winding down in late summer.

Moby I love the look of Hibiscus but alas I'v planted alot of them and just can't get them to grow for me ;0(

Creeping Speedwell

Your gardens must be beautiful!

One of my grouping in my flower beds.
Don't ask names as my computer is screwed up and wouldn't let me attach names to picture.

They are a work in progress..I might be done in 10 years.

Maxine, you could rename your individual photo files., rather than trying to attach a name to the image.

Example:
Your camera will have automatically named each photo file something like DMC453, or P202437, or MC8032, etc.

Right click on the one you want to change the name for. A window will drop down, giving you the option to rename it. Maybe "Lilium candidum Jun2008". When you have typed what you want, hit enter, and it's done.

Already tried that Lefty. I must get someone to check out this computer as it has glitch some where.
