What's Looking Good In July 2013

Maybe, he's having issues uploading pix? Not like Stephen to neglect pix.

 

Haven't really been in the gardens as such recently.. but I'll add some pics on Saturday

 

Welcome home Stephen,
Jenny

 

The last of July from me...
Several panoramic views first:





Not at my best in colour control, but it's an awfully 'Bulgarian' combination and I just love it:

 

And some individual celebrities:

Gaura


Rose Claude Monet


Hydrangea macrophylla 'Cardinal'



No varietal names for these two roses, sorry...





Dahilas..., the yellow one is 'Polka', but as for the front one, I have to wait for all to bloom, because I purchased some quite similar varieties.



Lilies


Ipomoeas Flying Sauvcers and Heavenly Blue

And an astilbe I just loved at first sight:
Astilbe chinensis 'Purpurkerze'

 

Your garden is truly delightful Angelina,
thank you for my little trip to Sophia today. I hope this summer weather finds you well,
Jenny

 

Angelina you have a very beautiful and colourful garden such a huge mix of colours and everything looking so healthy!

 

Gardens looking good Sheal, you've caught up with us at last after your slow start- lovely Cosmos and that grass is quite unusual - I like it - as like you I have never really been into grasses.

 

I've started a thread for What's Looking Good in August 2013

 

Well it posted ok in the Problems thread so I'll have another try here ..

 

Looks smashing. Is it as blue as that in-the-flesh? and do you happen to know what variety it is pls?

 

Ooooh "M " that's a right Royal blue.!
Super colour..
Jenny

 

Thank you, Kristen. Jenny is correct in that it is called "Royalty". The blue resembles that of the geranium "Johnson's Blue", so erring, ever so slightly to a mauve tinge?

 

T'will do me Thanks.
