gratitude for all your visits

Rustic perennial plant that from June to September produces wonderful thorny inflorescences of a lively purple pink on tall stems that reach one meter in height. Originally from river banks, it loves lake environments, prefers humid soils and cannot tolerate summer drought. The flowers attract butterflies, birds and beneficial insects.

An in camera double exposure of one of the dahlias in my garden. I can't remember what this one is called but unfortunately the bloom fell off the stem so I brought it inside to photograph.

Happy Thursday!

Many thanks for your visit, most appreciated.

hawthorn tree for Clare

autumn-planted May blossom

  

So good that the little hawthorn tree, popular with wildlife, has survived the long dank wet winter. When it blossoms one May, hopefully not too many seasons ahead, the double flowers will be deep pink and 'rose-like'.

Happy New Week!

Happy New Week!

 

Here a deep pink color. In our collection.

The former owners of our house planted 12 rhododendrons of various colors on the property. They grow very well in Oregon, the only place I have seen better ones is in Scotland at the Inverewe Gardens at Poolewe. This pinky-purple one is our favorite for its color and multiple bloom clusters. I like it in its natural setting but also showing off on black.

 

Thank you for taking the time to comment, award and/or critique my work, I truly appreciate each and every one!

I hope life is slowly returning to some level of freedom for you but don't forget to stay safe and stay well!

It was a beautiful color and I like the raindrops on the petals awaiting the sun to unfurl them.

Echinaceas have grown in popularity in recent years, thanks to the new trend for prairie-style planting. Known for their use in herbal medicine, these herbaceous perennials have pretty, daisy-like flowers with a central cone, hence their common name, coneflower. They're easy to grow as they tolerate most soils (except very dry ones), and their sturdy stems mean that staking is unnecessary.

 

Echinacea purpurea, also known as purple coneflower, has pink flowers and a large, orange-brown cone in the centre. It's perfect for growing in drifts towards the middle or back of a cottage-style or herbaceous border, or among grasses and rudbeckias in a prairie-style planting scheme. It's resistant to adverse weather and doesn't need staking. The flowers are long-lived, are excellent for cutting and are extremely attractive to pollinators. There are many cultivars of Echinacea purpurea available, ranging in height, flower colour and size of cone.

 

Grow Echinacea purpurea in well-drained soil in full sun. Deadhead the flowers as they fade to encourage more to form, but in autumn leave the seedheads for the birds. Cut them back the following spring, when the new foliage emerges.

 

Mulch echinaceas with well-rotted manure or compost in autumn. Lift congested clumps in autumn or spring.

Single zinnias, especially the small-flowered ones look like daisies, while the giant doubles are more dahlia-like. Available in a wide range of single or mixed colours such as cool greens and white or vibrant pinks, reds and oranges. Some even combine two colours. Zinnias also vary in height, dwarf forms being suited to bedding, the taller for use as cut flowers.

 

Think heat, sun and summer moisture for zinnias, so avoid heavy, wet soils, cold and shade. They are also loved by slugs, especially at seedling stage.

 

Zinnias love sunshine and warmth. They like to be well-watered but also need a well-draining soil type. They perform best in a good summer.

 

Single-flowered zinnias with their open centres are very attractive to pollinating insects. For good flowering be ruthless with your dead heading but gentle when cutting blooms for vases. Stems are hollow and easily damaged – probably the reason you don’t see them often to buy in the shops, even though they have a long vase life.

Hybrid Northern Marsh x Common Spotted Orchid / dactylorhiza x venusta. Bempton Cliffs, East Yorkshire. 22/06/19.

 

'HALF AND HALF ?' (2)

 

I believe this is an example of a hybrid Northern Marsh x Common Spotted Orchid. It was a real beauty, (one of 5 plants in small group), an eye-catching deep pink with bold purple markings. The obvious lobed lips of the flowers make me lean towards identifying it as a hybrid.

 

I would welcome any observations/thoughts from those who have more experience than I in identifying tricky 'half and halfers' !!!

 

BEST VIEWED LARGE.

This begonia has lovely dark leaves and few blooms but the blooms are a striking deep pink in color. This one looked shy, somewhat hidden by the other begonias so I gave this bloom a chance to be seen.

Peonia lactiflora Flame is a beautiful variety of peony, its blooms are truly spectacular, with long and vibrant petals that will attract the attention of anyone who passes by.

 

Thank you very much for the comments , favorites and views ❤️

 

Magnolia is a large genus of about 210 to 340 flowering plant species in the subfamily Magnolioideae of the family Magnoliaceae. It is named after French botanist Pierre Magnol. Magnolia is an ancient genus. Appearing before bees evolved, the flowers are theorized to have evolved to encourage pollination by beetles. Wikipedia

Scientific name: Magnolia

 

Magnolia trees are prized for their large flowers that perfume the balmy spring air with a sweet, heady fragrance. Their magnificent tulip- or star-shaped flowers can be as large as saucers when fully opened. They range in colour from pink, purple, white and even yellow. Some varieties have double blossoms.

These lovely wild roses caught my eye as a friend and I were walking around Mill Lake in Abbotsford, B.C. (22-08-03-4275)

......they may fade and remain pressed in books, left in drawers, or petals into perfume ~~~~Rosa del Cora...

Loose dendrobium orchid blooms are great for any type of decoration: table, food, plate, drink garnish or even simply floating in a bowl! An easy way to add some color! ~ from the internet. Here it decorates two different chicken salads!
