Summer garden!
 

So... I was getting all depressed because my tulips and daffodillies died.... But look at what I get now!

The white lilies are carpet border lilies that only grow , maybe 2 feet high. I have them lining m driveway (in between pansies that have gone out of control, and my ended tulips). Check out the buds! The red lilies I adore. They are called Monte Negro Lilies. I think I will get more. I have them planted around my young dogwood tree. Ihave other things just starting to bloom now too... butI don't think I'll be able to take and post pictures till... well, I'm gone :P

Beautiful! Mine are not so far along. Maybe I should post garden pics in another thread :scratchhead:

Nah! you can post them here! :biggrin:

Also, I lied... here are some more pictures of the front gaden. The back garden I've been neglecting, as Beckham was tending to rip it to shreds ;) Luckily, he didn't find my orchids before he went back to the breeder.

Ok, so... Flower I can't identify. This one, was in a box of plants my uncle left on my doorstep one day when I was out. He was cleaning up he garden and separated out some plants for me. The rest of the plants he gave me are budding now... I still don't know what they are for sure :rofl:
-Next is one of my many hostas. People keep giving me hostas, and I LOVE IT.
-Then my pansy/lily bed
-My Monte Negros again. They get a littler darker as they age :love:
-And finally some orange lilies that I bought at the supermarket last year. Note... they are not orange this year. Not that I'm complaining.... I didn't think they'd survived our crazy winter!

OK, here goes:

My wildflower garden, by the way, is a certified National Wildlife Federation "Backyard Wildlife Habitat". It also is certified, by WildOnes, as a "Native plant landscape." This garden is totally landscaped with Michigan native plants and flowers.
