More Bloomin' Flowers

I have so many flowers blooming right now I decided I'd best do
it in 2 posts. I can't believe I'm posting 2 days in a row! I explained a while
back how I've been so busy working outside I haven't had time to blog or hardly
visit anyone. I really miss it! How am I going to continue to learn if I can't
run around visiting your posts? I've also had some Doctors appointments in the
city (1 1/2 hours drive) and decided while I'm there I should do some shopping
to find something to wear for the class reunion I have coming up. Ug - a shopper I aint!

I'm not even doing Fertilizer Friday today because it wouldn't be fair to join in and then not go visit the whole list. Now that it's too hot for me to go outside I've got to do some work in the house before Bob trades me in on a new model. One that does something besides work out in the flowers all day long (weather permitting).

This is the Yarrow that Sweet Bay sent me and it's just a beautiful bright pinkish
purple color. It's already making new plants so I'll be able to put it
everywhere to enjoy next year. I know Sweet Bay is taking a much needed break
from blogging right now but I still wanted to put a link to her blog. But when I
did for some reason I lost this whole post and had to start over again. Not
going there again . . .

Barberry Rosy Glow

Dianthus

Clematis Jackmanii

Lychnis Rose Campion

I got 2 primitive benches from Doris so I decided to set one out in the
'monster' garden with some of my more primitive containers on and around it. I
think it looks kind of cute. Now to find a home for the other one. They are
surrounded by Liatris, Siberian Irises and Soapwort which tries to take over the
whole bed and that's how it got the name 'monster' garden.

Fertilizer Friday - Flaunt Those Flowers!

It's Fertilizer Friday so be sure to go over and visit our hostess Tootsie after you leave here and see what's blooming in everyone's gardens! And while you’re there why not join in on the fun. I got a surprise in the mail - Sweet Bay sent me 3 Yarrow plants. She had them all potted up so nice they’re ready to plant. They didn’t seem to be phased by travel in the least! I can’t wait to see them bloom next year!
A close up of this beautiful heart - don't ya just love it? Hope it blooms as long as they say!.
The other day I was reading Catherine’s post over at A Garden In Progress and she said she hadn’t been to a nursery for a while and wanted to go. Then she came back and showed all of her new flowers. This made me think that’s what I wanted to do. Life has been so stressful around here lately with running back and forth to the hospital and then over to my parents house after they brought Dad home that I haven’t done anything fun for myself. So I promptly left her post and headed for a nursery too! Since not much new is blooming in my gardens I’ll show you what I bought that day – and it’s all Catherine’s fault that I got these beautiful new flowers but it’s also her fault that now I have a truckload of work to do planting them! ;-) The Mums I bought last week are still waiting to be planted to so I’d best get busy.
A new Dicentra Bleeding Heart, Burning Hearts is suppose to bloom from March to September.!
And then I found these Lilies that weren't named - just Hybrid Lilies. They were definitely screaming my name with their beautiful wine color - they're actually a bit darker than shown.
A new Chocolate Creeping Jenny. Is this gorgeous? And it's evergreen! My other Creeping Ginny is fairly young so I don't remember if they are normally evergreen or not.
I fell in love with the dark foliage on this Euphorbia Blackbird. Next I want the other Euphorbia with the light green foliage and huge stalk. Can't remember the name of it.
Matrix Sunrise
Catherine's Littlest Gardener had a beautiful Winter Pansy and I decided I wanted one. I've always thought Pansies were gorgeous but thought they were annuals and I had other annuals I bought so didn't get them. When I heard these bloom all winter and were perennials I decided I had to have some. This one is Rose Blotch
Pink Shades
And last is Premium Pure Light Blue
