Better Sights This Year - Blooms

I've captured most of them; the highlights of each plant growing around the property. Let's go through the collection. You've seen this one before but it always captures attention each May. Dianthus. These are basically annuals that survive near the warmth of the house.


Japanese Viburnum or snowball- April 18. Three are scattered from last Mays planting. Only one bloomed this year. Currently about four feet in height. Expected 8 foot by 8 foot at maturity.


Pansies along the north side of driveway. April 25.

More...


Tulips in barrels April 11. Not sure if this one has been shown before...


Knockout Roses along drive May 9...



Azaleas above wall with Creeping Jenny..June 5


The lone Astilbe in with some Caladiums that have about three more weeks to reach full height. Too bad the Astibes will be gone by then...


Day Lilies. First one came out quite dark. Planted last spring, first time bloomer...


Others, some loaded with buds and finally the Calla Lilies...





Hopefully Hosta pics soon once the Caladiums are out in full force
