Just beautiful, I am always amazed and inspired by both your gardens and your photos. You truly are a master. My name is Fawne and I have been silently following your blog for quite a while. I thought it is time to introduce myself.
ReplyDeleteAren't those lady banks amazing in bloom? There is nothing else like them.
ReplyDeleteOh wow. That is stunning!
ReplyDeleteTruly, a dream garden!
ReplyDeleteBoth are budded here, and we wait.
ReplyDeletePhillip,
ReplyDeleteLove Lady Banks, you seem to have mastered it. Going to the Pie Social at the Seeds Garden on Sunday they have a huge Lady Banks!
Now this looks exciting. Can't wait to have something as scrumptious as this going on in my garden. It is good that you have a reflection of all the beautiful blooms going too.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful - two of my favorites-though I have neither one in my garden :(
ReplyDeleteI just obtained my first spiraea, a bridal wreath that I rescued a sprig from one of the old home sites nearby and potted up until it recovers.
ReplyDeleteOh the Nun's orchid, I put into a wider container. They have a lot of roots. I see why the references say to allow a lot of room. Mary
That spirea is just calling for you to walk through the gate....Lady Banks is strutting her stuff as well.
ReplyDeleteI wish we could grow Lady Banks... yours is amazing! L
ReplyDeleteSpectacular! The blue accents work really well with the white and the yellow.
ReplyDeleteJust wonderful, as ever.
ReplyDeleteWonderful Post! Lady Banks always puts on a big show!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely vignette...that rose is so very charming!
ReplyDeleteOMG! My heart skipped a beat. How gorgeous. Some people say once-blooming roses are not worth the space, but there is nothing that blooms with such abandon and profusion as a once-blooming rose!
ReplyDeleteJust caught up with your blog. Isn't it lovely to see the garden come alive again?
ReplyDeleteYour garden is so lovely. It's amazing how blooms can perk up a garden & just invite you into it.
