Beautiful Bloom Day!

It's a Garden Blogger's bloom day for me!! A wonderful Saturday for looking at my flowers! It's been months since I have participated and I was so excited to finally take part!!
I even found a plant I did not plant! I don't know where this little aster looking guy came from!

If you find yourself with a shady corner in need of a wonderful plant, I highly recommend Endless Summer Hydrangea. This color variation is on one plant, below the Bloodgood Japanese Maple.

The Lobelia looks like its coming out of summer dormancy and plays well off the Dale's Strain Heuchera....

I don't remember which allium this is. I planted it with the tiny little excuse of Black Beauty Elderberry, which you cannot even see, right now.

I had to have the anemone, but I don't have any place to put it where it looks natural, but I had to have it!! It has bloomed profusely since August. I dearly love it....

  1. I'm happy you joined us again for Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day. Your flowers look like they are enjoying this September weather. I had to laugh about "you had to have the anemone". I've heard that before!

  2. How much sun does your Endless Summer get? I can't get mine to bloom & am thinking of moving it to a sunnier location. Yours looks great.

  3. Nice pictures--the lobelia does look nice with that 'Dale's Strain' heuchera! I don't blame you for having to have that anemone, either. They're just so gorgeous.

  4. Your blooms are beautiful! I missed the Garden Bloggers Bloom Day, but will try to get some pics on today. I too, have a Black Lace Elderberry and it doesn't seem to be performing in quite the fashion that they advertise. I love you little tree hugger cartoon. I "swiped" it, hope you don't mind. "-)

  5. I had planned to add a hydrangea this year and didn't. I didn't know that you could nave two different colored blooms on one plant! I love Philmore! You still have lots of color and it looks like you had a beautiful day to enjoy your garden.

  6. Robustissima anemone was one of my most precious babies back in IL, Sissy- I'm glad to see it again in your garden. The dahlias are gorgeous.

    Your blooming day looks darned good, especially in such a harsh weather year - hope autumn is on the gentle side!

  7. You have so much color for this time of year, and you're giving me such great plant ideas.

  8. I love the Japanese anenomes too. We have white ones and pink ones but I especially love the white ones. That Hydrangea is gorgeous too - so pretty :)
