I am enjoying the Lionheart lilies and calla lilies on my deck.

Lionheart Asiatic Lily

I am totally giddy over the number of these Lionheart Asiatic lilies that are soon to bloom in this container on my deck. These lilies are black in the center with yellow-tipped edges. These are the only lilies that bloom consistently for me. That is because they are up on the deck and the deer and rabbits have (so far) not ventured up to eat them! Holy smokes! I just counted a total of 94 buds!! Wow. There are only two 2-gallon containers in this barrel. Cannot wait to see them bloom.

Spirea Goldmound

I have 7 Spirea Goldmound shubs in my perennial gardens. I just love the golden yellow color before it blooms.

They are such a bright spot of delight every time I walk through the gardens.

They have gorgeous pink flowers. The pink only lasts about two weeks. This is the same spirea as the one in the pic above.

Loving my Gardens this Year

We have had tons of rain and it shows in the nice green grass paths that make or break my garden display. May 11, 2024

I have no automatic watering, so I am dependent on Mother Nature and so far this year she has not let me down.
