Repeating white on the exterior to speak to white windows
Comments (66)Thanks ckinkopf for your ideas and thoughts. Glad you think it will look okay when we are all done. I think you are the first poster to mention we should have done darker windows, although I have thought that. Ignoring the windows for now is likely what we will do as I am out of ideas for repeating the white. Most of our windows are fiberglass which can certainly be painted. The basement windows and two others on the house are vinyl which I would be more reluctant to paint. The vinyl windows were bought 5 years ago and won't last as long as the fiberglass, so maybe in 10-15 years if they need replacing, we will swap them out for fiberglass and then paint them all a grey to match the window trim. At that point we would need to repaint the siding anyway so we would need scaffolding. Yikes, I hope we finish this reno by the time we need to repaint it all!!!...See MoreMore new blooms and repeats
Comments (11)It's really hard to get any post through between the hours of 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., so I avoid the middle of the day for posting. I love the clump shots of Black Fathom Depths and Clown Parade. Boss Lady is a pretty pink UF! Debra...See MoreThursday blooms and repeats
Comments (11)Maryl: Whip City intros are hybridized by Lori James here in the northeast. Isn't always the way that what looks and grows good in one garden may not work in another. All the Whip City ones are being moved behind other plantings in the front garden bed along the rock wall. Earth And All Stars is registered to be 33 inches height but I don't think I've gotten that height here since I bought it from the hybridizer Korth a couple of years ago along with several others. I moved Coral Majority 2 years ago to its current location and it hasn't done well with the openings since the move. It hasn't been cool here but very humid over the past several days with mornings in the low 70's. We had a very early morning thunderstorm which dumped more rain. Unexpected but glad to get all we can now. Julia...See MoreSaturday blooms and repeats
Comments (9)TRULY ANGELIC - larger blooms since we got all the rain. It is on bud and scape overload again this year. OH GREAT ONE - worked out better after the first 2 blooms CANTER - has been pumping out the blooms. I love the ruffled edge on it. Not sure if the pic really shows the edging. EVIDENCE OF ALIENS - multi blooms this morning and big. Poor guy is so short this year. BOSS LADY - not quite finished blooming in the lower garden spot. I wonder if Flaming Wildfire scape will beat David's daylily that was 40 inches. FW is registered to be 36 inches but I've not seen it more than 28 - 30 here. I'll stop here. Blooms are winding down and I'm anxious to clean the bed in the photo above and remove a lot of the plants out. Julia...See More- 2 years ago
