Best Garden Art Blog |
Over a week ago, Mr. McGregor’s Daughter invited us to share “The Best and the Worst of This Year’s Annuals” This meme tied in with a post that I have been intending to write for a while about the latest bit of garden here in “An Artist’s Garden” – a small [...]
This is the sum total of my carrot harvest this year! So that’s it – I give up trying to grow carrots. I have tried every which way – but the anxiety involved is not worth the effort. Thank you for all [...] I have been struggling with feeling under the weather for a few days now – but this morning I gave in, as I feel quite yuck. So I am afraid my Garden Bloggers Bloom Day post for July consists of a variety of flowers currently blooming in the garden;- stuck in a vase. I am quietly happy with my arrangement, because when I look back to July last year – I had no flowers, and gave my bloom day attempt C+
Included in the “arrangement” are;- Allium sphaerocephalom, Crocosmia, both Lucifer and regular momtbretia. Dahlias:- ‘Bishop of Llandaff”, “Bishops children” (grown from seed), ‘Arabian night” Dill. 2 types of ornamental grass. Poppy seed heads and flowers. Zinnias ‘yoga’, Cosmos ‘polidor’. Rudbeckia ‘green wizard’. Pink Astilbe. Penstemon ‘raven’. Echinacea ‘green envy’ Buddleja ‘black knight’. A biannual verbascum, who’s name I forget. Verbena bonariensis. Marguerites. Stachys (Lambs’ ears). Hebe. Echinops. Oh and let us not forget Rudbeckia ‘green wizard’ which I like for flowering arranging, even though it gets called bad names. |
