Wednesday and Thursday in Nova Scotia

14 years ago

Things are just about finished here. There are a couple of daylilies holding out but most are done. Today I have the very last bloom in the seedling bed. It has been an excellent year for seedlings. I think I made my last cross today. It was Tower of Babel X White Eyes Pink Dragon. Hopefully the seed pod will have enough time to mature before frost. Anyway, on with the pictures.

Cedar Waxwings

Tower of Babel

White Eyes Pink Dragon - the bloom had more pink/purple in it but this was the best picture I could get.

Edward,
You do still have some very pretty ones. I especially like Cedar Waxwings and Tower of Babel.

You are still having lots of really nice ones. My favorites are the first and last ones. Leaning more towards the first if I absolutely had to pick between them.

I need to seriously think about getting Victorian Lace too, I don't think I've seen a bad picture of it yet, but yours is one of the best. Everyone who has it seems to love it. I think I just tend to prefer the more vibrant colors, at least this year I do. Who knows what I will like next year.

Neato on the woodpeckers. I'd like to see them in person, but am conflicted about that. Don't want them tapping on my tree. Your pictures are marvelous. Elegant Candy sure came out well, as did the color on Major General.

Hi Edward, I had FFO on Thorhalla and Fizziwig yesterday... today was FFO for Orchid Corsage and Susan Weber. Still to come - Yuma, Carrick Wildon and Simmering Elephants. Your Michael Miller seedling looks to have great form with a lovely ruffle. Love the peach blush on the sepal tips too. Marianne

Key To My Heart is always lovely. I must put that on my short list for next year. I have Peach Magnolia and it doubles all the time for me too. I moved it last year, so it didn't perform very well for me this year. Mine has been done blooming for a couple of weeks now. Vickie

CEDAR WAXWINGS looks like it had a good bud season.

Next year I hope to see some of my seedlings bloom.
