What 's blooming in your September Moon Garden?
Comments (5)We've had a cool summer here in the U.P. of Michigan, so a lot of plants are behind. My Datura 'Belle Blanche' is just starting to really take off. Four O'clock 'Alba" is going strong and smelling wonderful, Baby's Breath, white Petunias, Alyssum, and Double White Begonias. The one that really took over is the Borage "Alba". They reseeded from last year, but I don't mind. They're awesome! Little stars nodding in the moon light, beautiful with the dew dripping off them in the early morning. Gotta love 'em! Sounds like I'm going to have to expand my Moon Garden to keep up with you guys!...See MoreJanuary 2019 Blooms
Comments (62)Month is almost over, but here's what I have now:Kalanchoe daigremontiana in the front yard. I used to have it in the back yard, but it became too invasive, and so I thought I would just let it do whatever it wants in the bad soil I have in the front yard.kalanchoe synsepala in the back yardClose-up of the flowers.Adromischus cristatus - I think this is blooming, but the flowers don't look like much. Also in my back yard.Pleiospilos neliiAll in the back yard. One of these will have more flowers next month....See MoreVeggie Tales - September 2019
Comments (442)Richard, Great news on the rain and slightly lower temps. Good luck on the Spokane opportunity. Keep us posted. Weather would be much more friendly in Spokane. I discovered this mess in my melon patch yesterday. It appears I had a hungry visitor in the garden overnight. In other sad news, I saw a mouse in my compost bin yesterday too. I don’t believe the mouse did the damage to the melon. The bites thrown aside behind the ‘loupe are too big....See MoreShow Us Your Landscape and Gardens - A Photo Thread - September 2019
Comments (18)Claire, I'd imagine that Sweet Autumn Clematis really gets covered with bees. I still have one Clethra that blooms late, 'Sherry Sue' that is usually covered with bumble bees. Not much blooming on it this year, because I pruned it a lot in the spring. I have a spider daylily I bought last year, NOID at a plant sale. This was the first year it bloomed and it was sparse, but it might turn into one I enjoy. Otherwise, I only have one other daylily - 'Hyperion' that is very large and fragrant yellow. I do enjoy an orange/blue color scheme, but, I have found that too limiting and I don't enjoy orange mixed in with other colors, like pinks and yellows. I think I'm not a big fan of plants whose flowers only open for a day. Except maybe a Morning Glory. I don't like the look of the dead scapes and then feel the need to deadhead them all the time. Hibiscus flowers only last a day too, and I do have two of those, but, sometimes I feel I could do without them. Yet, I've seen some very attractive public plantings of grasses and daylilies when they are fresh. Not so much when the bloom has past....See More

Just to note, my blues ones have not reseeded either.....
Today I added some badly needed color to the bed pictured above of the center slope....additions are variegated Iris and some of the shorter phlox.

4 years agoSept 4: Veronica 'Royal Rembrandt'. With deadheading, still blooming.
Rest today: Phlox paniculata 'Nora Leigh', at least here, is such a useful plant. It provides colour and form from late summer into early fall and the foliage remains attractive through much of the fall.
Heleniums and 'Nora Leigh'.
Dahlias, annual fillers for small spaces,

4 years agoYour gardens really do look lush GardenHo! Very nice Harold & SB! I should get that P. p. "Nora Leigh'.
I have quite a bit blooming. Strange weather this year and finally getting some rain, too late for many plants but better late than never which was the story this year.
Anemone 'Robustissima' & Sanguisorba officinalis 'Tanna'
Helenium 'Loydster Weick' (not it's best year) & Helianthus 'Lemon Queen'
From further back with Lobelia siphilitica & Chasmanthium latifolium
E. 'Gateway' with 2 Miscanthus. Coreopsis 'Moonbeam' still blooming in the background.
Vernonia c. 'Mammuth'
Gentian septemfida var. lagodechiana. I am doing clean up and editing in this area.
Primula having it's sparser fall bloom period.

4 years agoMy unknown giant pennisetum I bought last year labeled as miscanthus sinensis ‘adagio’ and obviously not the case. Also liriope muscari, and perilla frutescens var. crispa(Shiso) jungle flowering but very ‘unshowy’. Blossoms don’t all open at the same time. Good contrast with my self seeded agastache rugosa though, all first year flowering.

A friend had given me this sedumabout four years ago and it struggled in my stone planter so I moved it to a flower pot with much better soil and it really took off this year. I really love the darker color and the translucent leaves. It is a big departure from the Autumn Joy which I grow. Does anyone know the name of this variety?

4 years agolast modified: 4 years agoPinky Winky Hydrangea paniculata always looks better up close this time of year since from a distance the color tends to fade somewhat to a rusty, less intense pink. Sorry the first and third photos are turned sideways. Tablet and cell phone photos used to right themselves on Houzz but no longer do.
H.p. Quickfire will keep this intense pink until frost.
Kirengeshoma palmata Is in a bed where the voles have eaten everything not protected by buried protective cages, so it looks fairly sparse right now.

Here is my gifted ‘blue chiffon’... it’s a beautiful/unusual color.
I took a shot today in the garden... Quickfire hydrangea and Rozanne geranium...still going strong with new mum.
