What's Looking Good in July...!!!!

Lovely blooms folks

 

Lovely pics everyone

Rosa, your Cup & Saucer vines are growing a mile a minute, won't be long before the first blooms appear.

Shame about the Glads getting knocked down Bob, but they are still beautiful.

Pete, brilliant pink on those cactus!

 

We finally have a few sweet peas this year!






Our second patch of Eucomis, self-seeded -

 

kedi-gato what is the white flour could it is lovely

pete i have never sen a cacti like that its gorgeous

 

Thank you high kype.

I only knew the German name, Katzenpf�¶tchen, little cat paws, so I googled and came up with this -

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antennaria_dioica

I think it must be of the same family although mine is white and much taller than this pink one (I wouldn't mind having that colour too). Two of the English names match the German one - Catsfoot and Pussytoes. How about that name!!!

 

thank you kedi-gato i think i will go for pussytoes could get tricky when i ask for it but i will do anything for a laugh :D :D

 

Just beautiful folks ... love the Glads, bobj, and in particular the red and white one. Sis, your Gaillardia is fabulous.

rosa, I'm sure I've sent you this photo before but here you go again ...



Although this was taken in November, they are still blooming now.

 

Hello. :D

 

Sis - pity the Cup & Saucers don't grow over here. Well, they would grow in the summer but not make it through the winter.

Elaine - I love that red poppy, the colour seemed to jump out of the screen, just the thing for a dull day.

High Kype - let us know what the salesclerk says when you ask for Pussytoes!!!

 

Lovely and colourful - and no sign of slug activity TG! I see that you have Inula too, but the leaves are smaller, so guess it is another kind. The yellow flowers with the butterfly. The one with the prickly balls ( ) is interesting, are they really prickly? I note that you have the Cape Fuchsia too and what a lovely show of Mont Br......?? Gorgeous garden all round! Thanks for sharing.

 

shiney your little bit of heaven is stunning thanks for the show
