<p>Just came across blogs on this website..Great idea to post a lot of garden information for myself.</p>
<p>Blooming in the garage flowerbed is Geum(Mrs. Bradshaw)Azalea, Dr. Ruppel clematis, shasta daisies, Silene,(or whatever) and the creeping phlox bloomed for a few weeks and has about done for. Need to sheer the faded blooms off and divide some of them and spread them around the flowerbed in front of the living room window. I did dig up half of a large plant and made cuttings out of it for the upcoming plant swap, and also used other parts to start in the hydrangea bed. The columbines blooming in the front flower bed in front of living room window but the leaves are discolored because of either leafminer or spider mites. Tulips and daffodils have finished blooming and I'm waiting for foliage to die back. I noticed the dwarf fairy candytuft is ready to bloom, and the new snapdragons that was wintersown last year has buds on it so it will be blooming soon. The peppermint snapdragons in garage flowerbeds are blooming, but not all. Maybe they need to be divided in the fall.</p>
<p>Malva Zebrina, and red dianthus and california poppy are blooming in small bed beside of sunroom door. In flowerbed where roses are planted are new perennials this year. carpet of snow alyssum, Emerald Blue creeping phlox, and some pink creeping phlox. Burgundy blanket flower is ready to bloom, and I saw buds forming on the one rose bush. Back of sunroom flowergarden the calif. poppies are still nice, pink creeping phlox are finished blooming as is the pink azalea by the bird bath, and the one under the window.</p>
<p>This is the first year for Mrs. Bradshaw Geum. I will be moving it to a better location as it needs more space. I like it a lot. Saw a small patch of carpet of snow alyssum that reseeded itself from last year blooming yesterday. The calif. poppies should be next. The Azalea in garage bed that has been there for a long time is beautiful. Need to take cuttings and try to root them in the Fall. The small azaleas that we bought from Good Earth don't do all that well. Maybe they need to be moved elsewhere. Would also like to take cuttings for rooting from the Azalea in back of sunroom window.</p>
