On this Fourth of July, in the year of Our Lord 2023, ProfessorRoush is going to let the pictures (mostly) speak for themselves. I went out to take just one photo of each color, hoping that I'd have anything blue blooming at all, and I was yet overwhelmed by the abundance of red, white, and blue in a garden now brimming over with oranges and yellows from the daylilies. Okay, I cheated a little on the blue since most of the species that are currently blooming with blue flowers are native plants; all weeds in my garden. My apologies to my British readers for the insufferable reminder of the loss of your colonies. Warning, picture heavy!
First the Red:
|
Pelargonium potted in front of the house |
|
'Spiderman' Daylily |
Then the White:
|
Phlox 'David' |
|
Shasta Daisy 'Alaska' |
|
Hibiscus syriacus 'Notwooodtwo' |
|
Hydranga paniculata |
And last, but not least, the Blue:
| Clematis 'Romona' |
| Salvia azurea; Blue Sage Nothing is bluer! |
|
|
Hisbiscus syriacus 'Blue Bird' |
Not bad, eh? Not bad at all for a garden that currently is dominated by daylilies and looks like this everywhere:
HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY TO ALL!
