Blooms from this season in the garden

13 years ago

Today: Southern Patriot with Henry Fonda Rose. The whole area under Hank will be filled with this daylily some day. By the way, it's dormant, and I'm in hot SoCal.

Today: Dixie Land Band with red pelargoniums. Showbiz red rose is planted just to the left, but they have not bloomed at the same time yet.

Two Joan Seniors rescued from Home Depot last week. With Pinkie CL and screaming day-glo pelargoniums.

Eskimo Kisses all by herself.

NOID "Lindalily" and Exotic Treasure. Love love love that yellow lily! Another dormant lily that does well here.

Strawberry Candy with weirdly surviving foxgloves.

A month ago: Master Magician with larkspur and lilies.

Egyptian Queen with pelargoniums, lilies, and succulents.

Thanks! Renee

Garden Amaryllis blooming season...
Q

Amaryllis or Hippeastrum ? normally we refer to Hippeastrum as amaryllis, those in your zone will bloom anywhere from Nov to April. Smaller bulbs will bloom late, older well nourished bulbs will bloom early. Some of my old bulbs are blooming now while smaller bulbs bloom around March.

Ton Hannink (Haninkj) is right, he's a real pro at raising from seed in Holland. He has raised some beautiful and rare species plants from seed as well as some large flowered types. The web-site Bob gave you is the best place I know of to learn about growing from seed. Brian Collingwood, the author of that site is a very good teacher and is also a very talented hybridiser with many wonderful new clematis to show for his work, some of which I expect to see on the market someday. I hope you decide to plant those clematis seeds ! You may get an unusual and special clematis, but you won't get any if you don't give it a try ! It's a really fun thing to see a plants first flowers. They're sometimes VERY different than their mother ! Good luck ! Suzy

I adore that shade of bubblegum pink! Thanks thorngrower, love your username btw! Thank you Sara-Ann, I love seeing all of your beautiful rose photos too :) Thanks, Beth! No way I have a rose you don't lol! Irisgal, thanks for your sweet words! Montezuma is a showstopper for me! Also thanks for your help on the iris board ;) Rosecanadian, thank you! I love sharing with my gardenweb friends because you guys really appreciate the love it takes growing roses. Towandaaz, thanks glad you enjoyed!! Jasmine, thanks I am really have fun with the close ups I can take with the phone camera, I can just get lost in the details. Hareball, I think I am just lucky with naturally good soil, I do use Miracle Gro sometimes too. I would like to experiment with fertilizers but just get so busy that they are lucky if the get a dose or two of MG throughout the season.

Thanks, ladies. Chicago Candy Cane came from an AHS sale many years ago and has been a really solid performer. I love the color. Deb, you should have seen Rocket Booster as a clump - amazing! I'll see if I can dig out a photo from a prior year.

Hi Renee! Nice to see you here! What a gorgeous garden(s) you have! Joan Sr. blooms here for 6+ weeks. Very reliable and always lovely. Seems to bloom many one day and none the next. Eskimo Kisses is really neat!

Wow. Everything is so green and the plant combinations are just so pretty. My roses have not rebloomed yet as we had 6 weeks of no rain. They just started growing again after the soaking rainstorms of last week. So I really enjoyed yours looking so beautiful.
