Garden Thursday
Hello and Happy Garden Thursday. Virginger here with a short and quick tour of the garden. It has been cool and rainy here this past week. The garden is sort of between the spring stuff and the summer stuff.
The one pee-o-knee not fully bloomed and some pink columbine off to the left.
Our one and only poppy flower that we got this year. It didn't last long with the rain either. Mum says she needs to move the poppy plants. The daylily plants have over taken them so you can barely see them.
The boys are doing well inside. I see mousies and such out here, but we just let each other be. Outside is space we can all share.See you all next week for Garden Thursday.

We saw that the poppy dint like all the rain, so we thought we would offer a suggestion. Iffen ya got some plants that like less water than others, ya can dig them up, put a circle of edging arount them an plant them a bit higher than the others. The water drains faster that way.
ReplyDeleteOn the other paw, TBT sometimes just keeps plantin differnt stuff until they all survive with the same water and sun. We gotta admit that is easier. All he has to do THEN is buy more of them.
That is a wonderful tip Mark gave yoo ~ momma and I are going to do that for some of our plants that like it dry.
ReplyDeleteColor of Poppy flower is so rich red and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteand I love Mark's tip too but I didn't have the poppy dint. In Melbourne is a bit dry, Just this year we got lots of rain.
Have a lovely day

Too bad you didn't get more flowers blooming...that one sure is purrty!
ReplyDeleteBut it is certainly pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the garden tour. It is very lovely. I would likes to roll around in it. Have a purrfect day.
ReplyDeleteThe pee-o-knee has lots of buds and will soon look beautiful. Mum likes the dainty Columbines. It has been rainy and cool here too.
ReplyDeleteHow nice!
ReplyDeleteSend the rain to us!!
We hope your pee-o-knee blooms really pretty! Sorry your poppy didn't do so well.
ReplyDeleteWell, it may be only one poppy, but it's a pretty one! Poppies (not 'zackly like this one though) are California's state flower so there's lots of them round here (well, not in San Francisco, but in other places, MOL!)
ReplyDeleteHope your pee-o-knees bloom some more soon!
Pretty red poppy...Have a fun week ahead, precious friends and we hope you all will be able to stop by for Sukki's Gotcha Day on Tuesday...smoochies, handsome boys...Calle, Halle, Sukki
