Calif_Sue's blog: Garden progress

So much in bloom now, enjoying walking though the garden every day. The quail are still visiting daily and the babies are growing fast, they all can fly now, although, per usual, it's just short distances. Parents like to watch from a higher vantage point, the female was on the neighbors roof here


Some highlights from the past few days.

Rose 'Grace'


Clematis Franziska Maria™ with white Hyde Hall behind it


clematis Romantika


My camera can barely handle this bright Brothers Grimm rose


Iris 'Colette Thurillet'


Love the colors that I got in this image, Helen Hayes rose


Got the frame of the coop painted, windows are getting an eggplant plum color, it all goes so nice with the garden colors. My bronze Eastern Ninebark (Physocarpus opulifolius Coppertina™) looks good against that green.


Grapes and roses reaches across for each other, nice that I can walk underneath




First lily opened, Lily (Lilium 'Courier')


yarrow, penstemon and poppies


Paul Black iris


Strange Brew iris and Brookside geranium


canna, a black leafed dahlia and rose


Giant Hyssop (Agastache 'Summer Love')


Peruvian Lily (Alstroemeria Princess Lilies® Isabella)

Queen Anne's Lace (Daucus carota)


Caramella


I break off individual rosette pieces of Blue Echeveria (Echeveria secunda) and scatter them along bed edges and then grow into large clumps. You can see a few starting to send up blooms
