Floribunda + Annuals

Here are a few recent pictures. The floribunda was a rose my Mom got for me in New Haven that I thought had died. The gardens there are actually doing really well, thanks to my gardener tenant Dominic, who takes care of what I planted and has added a few of his own flowers and vegetables.




Onion chives with siberian iris:


Million bells is happy in its new full sun location. I planted a basket of verbena and lobelia next to it. My hope for annuals this year is that I can keep them alive. So far I have quite a few and not one plant has died. I'm watering a ton.


I couldn't get a good shot of the purple dianthus in almost full bloom:


Geranium x sanguineum with lots of blooms:


Coral Bells (heuchera):


First bloom on Rhododendron Nova Zembla, probably my most anticipated bloom of the season:


Globe Allium:




Siberian Iris - the first time I've seen it bloom since moving here. It was buried under the evergreen shrubs we removed.
