Nice group of photos. In the garden pic, what is the white flower (?) next to your metal globe?

beautiful.........love the first two

Lovely gardens! I adore purple daylilies.

Planetary Purple really caught my eye, but I love Purple Eclipse too.

Julia, the white flower is leftover from an Allium bulb that was lavender in the spring, now remains faded to a white ball. :)

deangreen: I grow alliums but mine never turn white. What variety is yours?

I wish I knew :( ... it was an ebay purchase. they grow up to 7 foot, quite tall indeed

I bet you are a neat person. The garden seems so orchestrated. Purple Eclipse is especially interesting.

Beautiful gardens! All by Design and Planetary Purple are my favorite blooms.

What a great shot of your garden bed. Do you favor the cottage garden look?.......My favorite daylily is Planetary Purple. Just wow.........Maryl

The first two are my favorites!

Maryl, I do favor that look, it wasn't meant to be cottage style but I only have so much room and the picket fence does give that feel. I was inspired this spring to call it "community gardening" versus cottage garden. ha which is basically new words for the same thing. :) a GREAT article:Understanding What Makes Plants Happy from NYT article https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/30/style/understanding-what-makes-plants-happy.html

Interesting article. The mulch look with isolated plants always seems a McDonald's design (though I guess that is needed in some commercial plantings). I see that All by Design is a Kaleidoscopic Intrigue kid.
