Just Blooms

Iris

'Nikko Blue'

Hydrangea macrophylla

How could a garden be complete without a hydrangea?  Everyone MUST have at least one!  Blooms are numerous and 'Nikko Blue' prefers morning sun in our garden.  Needs shelter from the late afternoon heat.  Great for cut flowers.

Hybrid Tea Rose

A very fragrant rose with plenty of buds.   Blooms early spring and again in late fall.  Several flushes of bloom each time as long as you deadhead.  Water at the base to discourage black spot. 

'Minnie Pearl' Daylily

You can't beat this daylily for reliability and continuous blooms.  Blooms from early spring until late fall in our garden!  Deadhead for more flowers and a cleaner look.  Just loves the sun.  Can easily be divided for more plants!

Summer Begonia

A summer annual  in our garden.  We left this one in a pot all summer and it did just fine!  Keep it well shaded from the summer sun.  

Iris appear to be very delicate but they actually are one of the toughest perennial plants around.  This iris was picked up at a local garden center with no tag so we are unsure of the "true identity".   What a beauty!!
