Pics, even some brugs!

17 years ago

I managed to upload some pics. I'm not sure if it's the camera or cable but it keeps stopping in the middle of the upload and giving me an error. Eventually I'll get the rest loaded. Here's two that I can't get close enough to see the name. The variegated one's bloom turned yellow the second day but dropped because of all the caterpillar damage. The Day Dreams and Golden Lady pics didn't x-fer.

Here's a couple pics of the hydrangea field at the farm. Not really much to see now. All the sunflowers have been cut and the rest of what's growing are mostly veggies and herbs.

My first big ripe tomato of the season. The big ones were so late to ripen this year.

    Great pics. I really like the White MGs with star centers. I bought some seeds of what were supposed to be double blue picotees on ebay, and also chocolate MGs, but so far what has bloomed is a single blue. I still like it though.

    Karyn, I love everything! I wanna know too what are the three before the caterpillar.I think the last one is Duranta Geisha Girl. That's really pretty. My seeds never germinated. :(

    The pics before the cat (yes Lucy it's a moth caterpillar, forgot which one) is a variegated ice plant from Lucy and the others are a Congo Cockatoo impatiens and the duranta Geisha Girl. If you want to try a cutting I'll send you some when I cut them back. They are pretty easy to root as long as they aren't soft green stems.

    Shawn (and Lucy) I can send you as many seed as you want of the white MG's w/star centers. I might also have some double blue picotees left. My picotees never consistantly send out doubles and sometimes the doubles are deformed. Like a double brug whose inner skirt doesn't drop.

    Edna I can't remember what the last plant is but it's a perennial bush type plant. I think the single variety is more common. I was hoping someone here would know the name.

    Siam we grow mainly flowers, flowering trees and herbs for cutting outside and we finish off plug trays and start stuff from seed in the greenhouses. The majority is sold directly to the wholsale flower business (my DH). It's just easier that way and we don't have to look for buyers. I'll go take a few more pics at the farm. Those are of the area behind the greenhouses. Everything but the hydrangeas are planted on the other side. Most of the front area is tilled except where the peonies and lilacs are. I think the hydrangeas are on 6 or 8 acres. The tilled area is about 4 acres. Then there's a few acres of woods which we don't do anything with. Here's some older pics of the GH's. I thought I had more of the fields but can't find them.

    Karyn YES I'd love some. By next season I should have the fence area ready so MG can grow. If they do not grow in full sun then....I give up on them 4FR

    But I do have one varigated maroon MG growing up the golden rain tree in the front lol

    Oh and next year I will try just letting them grow IN the flower beds. As ground cover...if that will work them staying on the ground.

    Karyn like I said before...I would love to stroll around our farm and it all looks so HEALTHY and gorgeous.
