The Obsessive Neurotic Gardener

Posted on May 17, 2010 by jmarkowski Posted in Blooms .

I am a day late to the party, but better late than never, right? (never mind, don’t answer that).

Before I show you some bloom photos, it would be a crime if I didn’t provide you with links to other bloggers who have unbelievable gardens with off the charts bloom photos:

Read Between the Limes

Thanks for Today

That Bloomin Garden

Garden Thyme with the Creative Gardener

A Hocking Hill’s Garden

The Obsessive Gardener

If these sites are on par with Madonna, then I’m Milli Vanilli.
If they are Chariots of Fire or The Godfather, I’m Gigli.
If they are Meryl Streep or Julia Roberts, I’m Pee Wee Herman.

OK I’m done, but that was fun and I could come up with a lot more but you get the point.   
 

Iris ‘Snow Queen’
Iris ‘Ruffled Velvet’
Knockout Rose ‘Radrazz’
Ninebark ‘Summer Wine’
Weigela ‘Wine and Roses’
Spirea ‘Snowstorm’

Daylilly ‘Happy Returns’ (stretching the bloom thing a bit but it is at least on it’s way)
Itea ‘Henry’s Garnet’

Peony (With these I’m like a parent who takes too many photos of their child)

Spirea ‘Goldmound’

I look forward to a new week with a ton of plants still sitting in the garage that need to be given a home.

Good night and god bless.

    I like the irises; a nice clean colour that draws the eye.

    Very striking irises! I’d take too many photos of peonies (if we could grow them down here), too. I also really like that Weigela ‘Wine and Roses’–not familiar with it.

    I am honored to be on your list of blogs. I love the Irises right now. They are like the orchid of the garden I think. My daylilies are just opening now too. Every day brings a new surprise in the garden.

    That Nine Bark photo is quite stunning. Cheers for the peony buds! It won’t be long now!
