Gardening Day

Begonia for Mother's Day from my daughter. Orange is my favorite color in blooms. The camera setting on my phone somehow changed. The pictures on this blog appear cloudy, sorry but I didn't want to take them over.

Pansies are still doing well in the yard although I pulled some others.

Don 't know what happened to these petunias. I was waiting to plant them in my window box but they started to look bad while waiting for temperatures to warm up. In the yard now in the plant hospital.

Finally planted my coleus seedlings.

Pulled pansies from out front and planted into this container until they die from the heart. It was 97 degrees today in Philly and will be in the 50's at night again in a few days. From heat at night to air conditioning. I tried to wait but it been hard sleeping the last few nights in the heat even with a fan.

Three years to get a bloom on this hydrangea.

Will I get any flowers from the seeds I carelessly sowed in the shade?

Lots of blooms on the tomatoes but no tomatoes. Lack of pollinators or the cold weather?

Lots of blooms on Annabelle hydrangea this year.

Aster over wintered from end of year mark down. Kept in container all winter and planted out in the spring. Balloon flower next to it.

Last seasons foxglove seedlings starting to bloom. I have to start more for the fall for next season.
