In a Vase on Monday – Lily Sweet Surrender. November 7, 2016. We took some flowers to C’s father in hospital this weekend, including Sweet Surrender, which is the first of my new lilies to flower. It has burst from the ground with strong long stalks covered with simple flowers. Thanks to Cathy for hosting this meme at Rambling in the Garden. In a Vase on Monday – Ixia Giant Yellow with Columbines and Salvia. In a Vase on Monday, Strawberry Hill and Comtesse de Cayla. November 7, 2016 at 10:55 am. Hope C&...

In a Vase on Monday – Just Joey and Bridal Bouquet – Absent Gardener
https://absentgardener.com/2016/12/12/in-a-vase-on-monday-just-joey-and-bridal-bouquet
In a Vase on Monday – Just Joey and Bridal Bouquet. December 12, 2016. December 12, 2016. Just Joey is just such a lovely and unusual rose, and although it’s not turning into a big bush, it’s in a tough place beside the driveway, continually battling off the attentions of a purple penstemon on one side and a rosemary on the other. Not to mention the weeds and grasses. Just Joey is such an unusual colour, especially the buds which are almost parchment-like. Check out Rambling in the Garden. Your florals a...

In a Vase on Monday -English Roses and Hybrid Teas – Absent Gardener
https://absentgardener.com/2016/11/28/in-a-vase-on-monday-english-roses-and-hybrid-teas
In a Vase on Monday -English Roses and Hybrid Teas. November 28, 2016. November 28, 2016. We are visiting C’s dad and it’s colder here than at home. Because New Zealand is long and narrow North to South, travelling even a few hours by car changes the climate. It’s rainy and windy, a good day to stay inside and take photos. The distinctive bright pink colour of Gertrude Jekyll is easy to recognise, a tall English Rose with masses of flowers on upright stems and a strong fruity scent. I was going to put th...

Galanthus: October 2016
http://mygalanthusgarden.blogspot.com/2016_10_01_archive.html
Then snowdrops and my heart I’ll bring" (Christina Rossetti). Monday, 31 October 2016. Cusworth Hall, Doncaster - New Trees, Autumn Sunshine. The loveliest house in Doncaster and a park that is continually being improved since its prime restoration between 2003-7, Cusworth Hall. The first of the new trees, shedding its red leaves. Betula utilis ‘Jacquemontii’ has a fresh, chalky white and crisp peeling bark. I remember when this small copse was first planted. Trees grow up, or I get older. Thursday, 27 O...

Then snowdrops and my heart I’ll bring" (Christina Rossetti). Monday, 26 December 2016. First ipheion in bloom - Ipheion uniflorum 'Wisley Blue'.

Galanthus: First snowdrop of the year, and one summer visitor
http://mygalanthusgarden.blogspot.com/2016/12/first-snowdrop-of-year-and-one-summer.html
Then snowdrops and my heart I’ll bring" (Christina Rossetti). Saturday, 24 December 2016. First snowdrop of the year, and one summer visitor. 24 December 2016 at 21:01. Its quite remarkable to have a snowdrop and a Rudbeckia blooming at the same time I expect, but they both lend an appropriate measure of cheer to the holiday garden. Happy Christmas, Ian!

Galanthus: Galanthus "Three Ships", Hellebore "Christmas Carol" and a Christmas morning surprise
http://mygalanthusgarden.blogspot.com/2016/12/galanthus-three-ships-and-hellebore.html
Then snowdrops and my heart I’ll bring" (Christina Rossetti). Sunday, 25 December 2016. Galanthus "Three Ships", Hellebore "Christmas Carol" and a Christmas morning surprise. I hope you are enjoying a splendid Christmas Day. The weather forecaster as I type speaks of the potential for beating a record dating back almost 100 years with temperatures possibly beating the 15.6C of Killerton in Devon in 1920. I had hoped "Three Ships". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Fox and Shakespeare Decorations - Hadd...

Galanthus: Galanthus nivalis Sandersii
http://mygalanthusgarden.blogspot.com/2016/03/galanthus-nivalis-sandersii.html
Then snowdrops and my heart I’ll bring" (Christina Rossetti). Tuesday, 15 March 2016. Still beautiful on my display bench, Galanthus nivalis Sandersii is quite a sight and a rival for many over-priced yellow snowdrops I could mention on eBay at the moment. Not all versions with this name are as yellow. In the background is Eranthis hyemalis 'Guinea Gold', a deeper version of the winter aconite and one I have had for years but one that refuses to increase. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
