So gorgeous! Have you had to deal with Japanese beetles on your roses or hibiscus? If so, how do you deal with them? I’ve tried everything & there are still dozens nibbling on mine every day & making me crazy! Lol! Thanks for the update on your beautiful spaces & all the information shared!
Thank you! So far the beetles have not attacked either of those plants but you never know. It seems like they pick a different favorite to swarm every year. I have heard they release something like pheromones when they find something they like and that attracts more beetles to the plant. I don't plant sunpatiens anymore because they ALWAYS go after those.
Loving the Yarrow, you said its called "no blessa"? Adding to my plant "wish list" lol... needing some white, my Shasta daisies I plant from seed didn't come up I don't think 🤔
Yes, it is called Noblessa Yarrow and it is amazing. Peter Cottontail is another similar variety if you can find that one. Phlox and Echinacea also have some nice white varieties if you don't have them yet. 😊
I always get a little bummed this time of year because summer just feels so short. It's like we just got going and now we're already heading towards the end. I just have to remember to pause and savor it once in a while!
Your garden is gorgeous! Is your honey suckle the Kintzley’s Ghost variety? How many years to get that big? I’m thinking about getting one. Is it prone to get aphids yearly? Do you have a beautiful variety of plants! Your Bobo hydrangea and opening act phlox are so pretty
That is Kintzley's Ghost Honeysuckle and I planted it in 2019. It got big very fast. For 2 years I had a hanging basket on the laundry pole it is climbing but the 3rd year the basket got engulfed. I think any honeysuckle can get aphids but I suspect mine was stessed after several years of drought. The aphids don't seem as bad this year so I'm hopeful I can get rid of them. Bobo is a great plant and I've been very impressed by Opening Act so far! Thanks for watching, I appreciate it! 😊
Regarding your echinacea, examine for mites vs aster yellow. It's possible you have mites and do not need to remove the entire plant. They look similar, but I am reading a better sign for aster yellows is yellowing and browning of the foliage / stem, not just relying on visual changes to the blooms only to make the diagnosis. I believe if it is mites then you only need to remove the bloom, not the entire plant.
I have battled mites on that patch of echinacea before and treated them by continuous deadheading of affected blooms. I also lost one of the original plants to aster yellows a few years back. It was stunted and deformed while the others grew well so I pulled it out. The green blown-out look of the seed head is what worries me on that flower. Those plants self-seed prolifically and there are lots of new seedlings coming up constantly so I decided to pull it out just to be safe. I can't even tell one is missing now! 🙂
Your garden is super beautiful! Thanks for sharing!❤

Too funny...I was feeling sad today while I deadheaded my hosta blooms. It must be a Minnesota thing. "Beastly hot" is correct.

Amazing colorful garden.❤❤
Thank you! ❤️

exciting to get the evergreen screen put in.
Yes! It will take me some time but it will be so nice to have more evergreens dotted along the fence.
You have a lovely garden. Since Foxgloves are highly poisonous, remember to thoroughly wash your hands after touching, or handling them.
Thank you! I wear gloves most of the time in the garden to avoid skin irritation as well 😊

What dwarf goldenrod would that be?
That is Little Lemon Solidago. At least, two of them are for sure. One was on clearance without a tag so I took a chance. 🙃
