I have a climbing white which is beautiful for about 1 week Oh how lovely! The teeny little spindrills look so delicate and add such a wonderful look to the larger flowers. Yes, Whatagain that is a busy little bee for sure! |

What glory -- first the lacy pure white of Lugg's hydrangea, followed by the soft but rich colors of Whatagain's graveyard and the vegetable garden.

Beautiful, Lugg. As much as I like clematis and keep trying to grow them, I just don't have ny luck with them. Time for me to give up.

Is that the real name of this variety or just a brilliant description?!
Very beautiful.

Don’t know the name but that’s a very apt description!

That reminds me of my grandfather's dahlias.

Are all of those blooms on a single plant, Mick?

Yes indeed.

Post by bjd on Aug 1, 2024 19:10:03 GMT
Is that a coincidence that it's a "cactus dahlia", Mick?

That’s sneaky but yes.

Gorgeous! I love oleanders. Are either of those scented?

Post by tod2 on Aug 5, 2024 17:17:21 GMT
Oleanders! I love them but I know they are deadly poisonous so keep kids away from maybe picking the flowers.

Post by bjd on Aug 5, 2024 18:49:05 GMT
I think the entire plant is poisonous. That red one is beautiful.

Keeping away for oleanders is one of the very first instructions that one is told as a child, along with keeping your fingers out of an electrical socket. We had lovely oleander plants along the driveway.

What a darling! I love its habit of growth, with the flowers rising perfectly out of all those dense leaves.

It would make a good hanging basket plant.
