It's kinda neat Kelli, but doesn't really stand out does it?

No, I almost missed it among the iris leaves.

Peruvian Daffodils

Kelli, your green gladioli is beautiful, such a delicate color.

I planted some gladioli bulbs years ago, I can't remember when. I do know it was before 2009-2010, before I started documenting what I was putting in the garden. Years have gone by, with no blooms, and I didn't lift the bulbs. Well, now I have random plants showing up.

I've seen yellow, pink, and lavender blooms so far this summer, but I have to say this red has been my favorite, and it's a great color echo for O. Lily Dizzy, that's close by.

Beautiful P. Daff j! We crossed posts

Dizzy is pretty cool, a real standout.

I've had those Peruvians for over a dozen years - they make great photographic subjects.

Thanks jmorth!

I grew Peruvian daffs at my other home in a pot, they bloomed beautifully. We moved to our present home in 2004, and I can't recall what I did with them. I like their unique blooms, and may have to give them a try again.

Nice to see a few glads being posted.They are out of favour here in Australia,nobody seems to appreciate them anymore, but I still grow and breed a few.Here is my best seedling from last year.

And a few young cyclamen seedlings.

Wonderful Cyclamens, Paul!

And beautiful glad, Paul

Allium

Jack, that crinum is gorgeous! Do you know its name?

Sorry for the late response @sgardener, eye problems and a crashed computer...I'm afraid I don't know it's official designation; kind of looks like Wine and Roses or maybe it's Milk and Roses. I received it in a trade probably 10 years ago or so (back when I used DG). It is super photogenic (check out the DB entry under Crinum general entry).

Calla lilies - Black Forest and Regal


Tuberose Yellow Baby

Rain Lily

Magic Lilies

Pineapple Lilies - , also Oakhurst

Pretty blooms you have there, Jack. I like your Crinum for the fact that the leaves are short and I like the color of the reverse of the flower. Delagoense and bulbispermum come to my mind seeing your pic. I will check the DB. I think I could find it on ebay once I know the name. Thanks for the reply.

Sharing what I have blooming right now.

Purchased as JC Harvey on Ebay.

Amarcrinum howardii purchased from Brent and Becky's Bulbs few years ago.

I've had amaryllis blooming all summer, which I've never had happen before. This might be the last flower stalk.

Fall is in the air, and the first Colchicums are blooming.

C. cilicicum





C. bornmuelleri

Nice! I've had them in the past but they didn't naturalize, though they are supposed too. I maybe didn't water them enough.

Beautiful Neal! It's so nice to see such a pretty color at this time of year.
