What's Blooming in Your Garden - a Photo Thread - June 2014
Comments (74)PankajT: So where's your new thread? I think it would be very useful for a lot of people who may hesitate to post, and there's always something new to learn for the more experienced gardeners. As Steve said, you can go to the main New England Gardening page and look at the very top for a link to post a message. Or you can go to the same page and scroll all the way to the bottom past a lot of white space and get to a box that works the same. You don't even have to retype your message since you've already posted. You can use the edit post feature and copy what you wrote here, and then paste that in the new thread. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Back to the blooming thread - I'm getting dizzy with all the beautiful pictures and the succession of new flowers appearing every day! Each garden seems to be on a different schedule, and so is mine. My first daylilies! Hemerocallis 'Orangeman' I just bought a bunch of these on sale this spring from Old House Gardens, and wasn't expecting anything this year (little bitty plants). One of them is blooming already, to my amazement. I love spider-type daylilies. Another daylily, 'Black Eyed Stella', just started also: The first foxgloves/digitalis have started. These planted themselves a few years ago by the rugosa roses and peonies and they match them perfectly, so I've encouraged them to stay. Pink: And white: Viburnum 'Summer Snowflake" is taking off now, while the doublefile viburnum is fading away. The doublefile blossoms are decorating the ground now. The little Calamintha grandiflora is quietly blooming. Along with the little Sedum kamtschaticum sitting next to the cotoneasters and a yucca. Two of my favorite irises: 'Rustler' and 'Beverly Sills' Claire...See MoreMoving lots of dirt today!
Comments (39)Susan, Thanks for asking. Our son's graduation from the fire academy was awesome. They showed about a 20 minute video of 'highlights' from their months in the academy and we all really enjoyed seeing that. Then we took a tour of the academy and it was so much bigger and more complex than I had imagined. It was huge! About a dozen of his future co-workers came to graduation and I thought that was really wonderfully supportive. He worked his first 24-hour shift as a firefighter at D-FW Airport yesterday and came in this morning just as happy and as excited as could be. He said they had one fire call, one automobile accident call and a terrific lunch and dinner. What more does a 22-year-old need? Husky Red Cherry. I think that you will like it. You know, it really is not a determinate OR an indeterminate and I thought about the husky series yesterday when I was writing Jeff a definition of determinate vs. indeterminate. Husy Red Cherry is an ISI, which stands for indeterminate short internode. So, technically it is an indeterminate, but a dwarf one. The ISI tomatoes are suppposed to combine the best characteristics of determinate and indeterminate tomatoes in one plant. Thus, it should give you the more controlled growth habit of the determinate and the unlimited productivity potential of the indeterminate. I think that is why it is advertised as a "one-stake" plant. The first ISIs were introduced in 1990 by Petoseed and I think one of them was an AAS winner a couple of years after that. There is a whole series of them....Husky Red, Husky Pink, Husky Gold, Husky Red Cherry, etc. I have never grown any of the ISIs. Some people who have grown them didn't care much for the flavor. I never worry about those kinds of comments, though, because taste is so subjective and what tastes good or bad to one person may taste just fine to someone else. I hope it attracts a lot of cats to your yard. Are you growing any of the wild nightshades for them? Dawn...See MoreUPDATE: obf just be nice # 3 update
Comments (121)Nicole, I received your email yesterday about your plate prize being chipped. Sent you an email back yesterday. In case you did not get my email, please hold on to the shipping receipt, box and shipping material. I will call the store I ordered from tomorrow and see how they want to handle it for a replacement. If they are unable to do so, then I will send you something else. I will email you after I speak with them. Thanks for letting me know about the chip. Appreciate it! Happy Sunday...must run! Annie...See MoreWorking around a layout that I know you all will curse...
Comments (40)You are a hoot, arialvetica. I love your current kitchen, but.... Oh, kitchen layout critiques are going to be so much more fun now. I tried to give you the U-kitchen with island but didn't do a good job of it and I couldn't figure how to do it and give you the sunroom. Sorry. I flipped the front door to the other side of the porch. Maybe someone more creative than me can riff with this a bit. The aisles are wonky. ETA: I do like the spaciousness of this but I understand why you want that room for messes....See Morerunninginplace
