This is an updated picture from my earlier post titled A Daunting Task. It always amazes me how a garden can go from looking dead to looking lush and colorful in a matter of a few weeks. I almost have this garden under control now. Can't wait for the orange poppies to open. My butterfly bush isn't looking very healthy this year, and it's my favorite one. Hopefully some of it will bloom this year. The pink azalea is doing great as are the creeping phlox.

Spring Greenhouse Garden

The azalea is just stunning!
ReplyDeleteBonnie girl it IS AMAZING how our gardens can look so dead one day then look amazing in just a matter of days .. and if it has been raining .. look out then for sure !
ReplyDeleteYour garden with that zap of pink is looking great ! .. buddleia can be so slow to look like it is alive and healthy .. so don't worry yet girl .. it is just trying to wake up still .. mine are too .. I think they need alarms clocks for Spring ? LOL
Joy : )
I had to look at this photo in the enlarged form ... lovely garden. Love all the blue and that azalea is just beautiful. It looks like there's a pond area as well ... it all looks under control to me.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog ... glad you liked the bouquet. I had a little chuckle when you used the word 'exotic' ... the Dragon Wing begonia is such a common hanging basket plant here ... and because it's seen as common, practically no-one ever thinks to use the stems in a floral arrangement. I use them all the time because not only do they look great, but they last a long time.
