same....

Don't those semps look great. Especially in the half shell! I can't believe you are up to Asiatic lilies in May!

Thank you, Kathy.
Being a New Englander myself, neither can I. The OT's are up 5 1/2 ft now. This is their second year, so wasn't expecting them to perform like this. Things grow really fast and big here. I am always surprised at the RATE of growth, too, compared to what I am used to in Mass.

When I lived in W-S, I wasn't gardening but I remember lots of fruit trees and canna lilies and boxwoods!

I'm so looking forward to the lilies blooming. Orange Art is wonderful.

I like your annual wall Kathy. I am trying an annual tower this year in the driveway. Mostly zinnias and lantana. Did some changing around of plants after this photo was taken.

First time ever to have a good clump of Digitalis purpurea, thanks to a DG member sending me some plants a couple years ago. Now I have 4 clumps doing well.

Orchid Growth Formula seems to be working well on my Felis Catus 'Sophie' too.



Just kidding, she just licks the drips a little. Thankfully none of my 3 cats eats any part of the plants or make any attempt to jump on the plant stand.

Oh good luck with the tower!! Sweet kitty and great foxgloves!

Cute Kitty!
I LOVE the Foxgloves!

Susan, That photo of your cat is priceless!!!!!! Great.
And your Foxgloves are beyond gorgeous.

Thanks. It has turned very hot here over the last week and I'm afraid the foxgloves are starting to suffer.

Here is my first ever bloom on a pseudata Iris. This is Ryugan.

Aruncus and tall bearded iris.

Beautiful color on that Tall Bearded Iris!

Thanks. The Iris is Millennium Sunrise.

Oh I love your Pseudata!!!!! I have 6 but not that one.

Beautiful, Susan.
Posted these elsewhere, but was excited to see them all open today, seemingly at once.
