OMGosh Maggie I have a Gaura but it is white. It was a gift from a friend and I just love it. Your pink one is really beautiful too

 

[Bernie]

OH Maggie your garden is just spectacular. I love each and every bloom. TFS I lost my gaura this winter.

I have a white one to but it hasn't started blooming yet. Now that I think about it I haven't seen it this year. I'll have to look for it tomorrow.

Mine is only 1 yr old but it looks really healthy. I don't know how to propagate them, do you?

 

[Maggie]

I have never tried to propagate but I believe you would have to take a piece of the root. I found my white one today its just later in blooming. After the first flush of blooms you can cut them back and they will bloom again just as pretty. It will take 2 to 3 weeks for them to rebloom.

 

[Maggie]

I have some more new blooms. Cactus, poppies and rain lily.

Maggie that is a wonderful patch of cactus are they prickly pear???

 

[Maggie]

Daylilies and zebrina mallow.

 

[Maggie]

Asiatic lilies, daylilies and hollyhocks. My hollyhocks were a disaster this year. To much rain I guess.

[Maggie]

I jst told Tim I want a prickly pear patch. I had one before at our old place and I really miss it. Going to the beach this afternoon so I think I'll grab some to plant.

 

[Maggie]

A few more blooms to share. Lilies, zebrina mallow and some of the plants on my deck.

 

[Maggie]

Some blooms from the daylily seed that Ron sent me 2 years ago. They all haven't bloomed yet but I am really proud of these. Thanks Ron for the seed.

Maggie I want to sit on your bench and enjoy your garden it looks so lovely.
What do you do to get your calla lilies to bloom? I've been saving them for a couple of years. I plant them each spring and the come up beautifully but they never bloom. What am I doing wrong?

 

[Maggie]

Thanks Bernie, I have my pink ones in a pot and when they die back I cut them off and set them under the house until spring. I then fertilize and water them and just wait until they bloom. I have to keep them watered good. My white ones I leave in the ground and fertilize in the spring. They bloom later than the pink ones.

 

[Maggie]

Dasies, hosta, asiatic lily and wishbones.

 

[Maggie]

Astilbe, hydrangea, wave petunias and million bells.

Oh Maggie Love all those daylilies
