Flaunt Those Flowers Fertilizer Friday

Today is Tootsies Flaunt Those Flowers Fertilizer Friday. So head over to Tootsie Time and see who's showing off their flowers today.
Looks like a Peony doesn't it?
It's an Armeria like this.
This Dianthus Floral Lace Violet has one bloom on it - it's just starting and will
bloom all summer I believe.
A Pink Hardy Geranium just starting to bloom.
Pretty isn't it - the purple one is starting too but I didn't get a picture yet.
Here's another Columbine blooming and I don't know it's name.
The Phlox are doing good - in spite of a kazillion fir needles.
My pink and white Lupine is opening - can't wait to see it - to see if it's the
right color for starters!
This one was new last year and apparently doesn't grow very fast. It's Rock
Jasmine Androsace Sarmentosa. Anyone familiar with it? It's pretty and in my
color so I had to have it.
My Spiderwort is starting to bloom. One of my favorites - in the fuchsia color is
my real favorite but I love the 2 colors together even better.

One of my Weigelas is opening and I don't know the name of this one. It's just
getting started.

Jacobs Ladder is finally blooming and I can smell the grape scent. It took long
enough.
I thought it was kind of interesting that this cone fell from clear up in a fir
tree and landed right in the middle of the Crocus looking like it was a big
bloom. I guess this is a Crocus - I thought it was the one that bloomed early
then layed around on the ground all summer looking like crap and then bloomed
again in the fall. Maybe not.

Fertilizer Friday . . .

It's Fertilizer Friday so be sure to go over and visit our hostess Tootsie and see what's blooming in everyone's gardens after fertilizing religiously every Friday! Join in on the fun while you're there too.

Tall Campanulas


Delphinium

A fuchsia colored Spiderwort - the purple one bloomed earlier - it was an experiement I put in a really bright location and they like part shade. The one in the sunny location is doing great so now I know I can put them just about anywhere.

Salvia May Night

Dwarf Snapdragons

Poppies

Purple Spanish Lavender


This Snapdragon stayed green all winter and is now blooming great. My other 2 I had died back but came back growing on the old wood. Sure has me puzzled.


Sweet William 'Sooty'

Weigela not sure of name - this one is full size where my other I believe is a dwarf


Yellow Daylilies

Fertilizer Friday - What's Blooming?

It's Fertilizer Friday so be sure and go over and visit our hostess Tootsie and see what's blooming in everyone's gardens after fertilizing religiously every Friday! Join in on the fun while you're there too. This Columbine I don’t know the name of but notice how 2 blooms grow differently. One is looking straight ahead and the bottom one is pointed up.

Everytime I think I’ve shown Snow In Summer in full bloom, I haven’t! Now it’s blooming! And it really stands out next to the blue Lithodora and the hot pink Neon Star Dianthus

A little Weigela I started and put where I needed something good sized. It’s not even a foot tall but blooming really great!

The color isn’t quite as deep rose in the picture as our Peony really is but still pretty.


A beautiful white Iris a friend gave me last year. And a purple one below it.

The Siberian Irises are blooming in purple and lavender and I have 1 mauve colored one.



The Deer got Cardinal Song up by my greenhouse but yippee they missed this one in front of our house. They got it last year when I brought it home brand new with 20 or more blooms on it and would you believe every bloom came back? I was amazed!
This Columbine didn’t get shown yesterday in my new flowers. I bought it to replace the first one the deer ate. It’s the same style but not as bright color and also has a white bloom too. Are there 2 flowers mixed together like that other one? It’s called Origami Pink & White

The carnations are starting to bloom.
Last is my pink rhodie – by the time it’s in full bloom it looks like cotton candy but I didn’t catch it at the right time.
