rasberry blast supertunia. This is doing Super!!!

blue larkspur. It really is blue hope it comes out that color for you

cones flower. They are big this yr.

Dalhia this comes up every yr but it's a lot taller this yr. too.

glad. Last one. Thanks for looking

What beautiful, healthy-looking flowers! I love all the different varieties and colors in one landscape.
I never saw Gladiolas growing like that before in a garden! Really pretty, are they grown from bulbs and are they perennials? I really don't know, but I love them!
(It's nice not seeing them where I have seen them in the past - funerals)

great pictures.. you with your green thumb. love the larkspur and yes it was blue. i should have some of that seeing as i live on Larkspur Drive. also love the coneflower. you have inspired me to turn my two circles back into flower beds again. next year, that is.

btw, i thought larkspur was a tall stalk, kind of like delphinium. yours looks more like a shrub and i like that.

Thanks! I love the glads in the garden they are bulbs and come up every yr. There aren't as many as last yr. But they do multiply. I pull them up!! Wavee If you want bulbs let me know

It is a blue larkspur I don't know the botanical name for it. I also have the tall varity in white,pink and purple. I'd save you seeds for these too.
Bana if you'd like I'll be happy to save you seeds this fall. They start pretty easily!
Or anyone else that would like seeds. I'll have plenty!

Just beautiful my dear! You must be watering daily to get these results! Your efforts are paying off! Love the color! You go girl!

Everything looks so happy, healthy and pretty. Maybe I'll get me some glads....maybe no one will eat them.

Beautiful blooms. Love the glads too! Always fun to see different garden plants and flowers.

Sorry Bama I'm Sorie and Silly bird. one is my lap top and the other is desk top. I tried to sign in on my laptop as Sorie and the powers that be wouldn't let me so signed up as Silly bird. Sorry for the confusion! I'll be happpy to send you seeds when they are ripe. Just email me your addy when the time comes. THanks

i kind of thought you might be both... will pm you my address.

about when do you think seeds will be ready?

Well Sorie/Silly Bird - maybe we should rename you SSB

Beautiful flowers you got there girl. Love the larkspur....I love blue in the garden. All look healthy and green so you must not be languishing in the heat like us southern folks.

Thank you for some refreshing views.

Oh yes Ve we have had heat 95 and above for 15 days! We're getting a little relief yesterday and today. Rain last night and supposed to get more tonigh and tomorrow,sure hope so we need it.
Hope all you folks get some relief soon.

Bama the seeds probably won't be ready for at about a month. They have jsut really started blooming (the blues ones). The taller ones are about done so it you want them too I'll save you seeds. I've been cutting the seed pods and throwing them in the trash there are soo many!

I thought I posted on this...must have hit the back button istead of the post button! Sorry, old age!
Love your flowers especially the glads. They are really pretty!
I have several...white, yellow and a cream w/purple edges. And the wild ones I dug up are yellow/orange combo.

I love that blue on the larkspur.

Isn't it fantastic what the hybriders have done with petunias. Now you can get them in almost every color and with a zillion blooms.

Sorie/Silly Bird, I would LOVE to have any seeds/bulbs you want to share...and they will be greatly appreciated (I don't say thanks as that is a 'no-no' supersti--tion I have....
Don't you have to dig up the dahlias in the fall?
LOVE the pix you posted, I am hoping my cones will look that good next year. I know they are drought tolerant and I hope mine will make it this year--being newly planted I try to keep them 'damp' with this horrible summer I just don't know what is 'enough' or 'too much' you know? I've had them before and guess I 'loved them' too much and they drowned...gonna try again.
Thanks for sharing the pix....

Love the blue larkspur, reminds me of my mother's yard. She used to grow tons of it and it reseeded. Thanks for the pics!

All very pretty SSB! On that larkspur - is it like a ground cover that stays close to the ground?

The bluelarkspur is about 18-24" tall and is kind of bushy. One plant is med blue and the other is light blue.
Again if anyone wants seeds I'll be happy to send them when the time comes. It will be a while as they just started blooming.

Gorgeous flowers, They look so amazing .
