Sunny and hot and after the unusually large amount of rain for July everything is growing tall and green. So, for today I have more luscious froth! The Ammi, Queen Anne’s Lace has gone crazy. Loving it, as I do, I picked more and chose a different pot for the similar selection as last week. It reminds me of English lanes overflowing with Cow Parsley.
Yarrow Achillea millefolium, Lady’s mantle, Alchemilla mollis, Snapdragon, Antirrhinum ‘Chantilly Lace’ , Zinnia, Queen Anne’s Lace Ammi majus, Cress, Lepidium sativum, Larkspur, Delphinium ? and Clarkia, Godetia
I have many colours of Yarrow. It is a perennial that is so easily started from seed. I just started in a row and then kept the colours I like.
Then, because I needed something a little different, an old olive oil can with some heat consisting of a Dahlia believed to be ‘Vudu’, Crocosmia ‘ Lucifer’, Monarda ‘Red’?, Yarrow Achillea millefolium, red? , Burnet, Sanguisorba officinalis and Sweet William, Dianthus babatus.
In our corner of B.C. we have been lucky so far this year with little forest fire smoke, slightly cooler temperatures and abundant rain. However I know many are sweltering under choking skies. I hope all those people are still taking comfort in their gardens.
