I do not understand this tremendous blooming!

5 years ago

Surely fertilizing in November and March couldn't lead to all this.


Front yesterday from far left



yesterday: Navajo Pony and Long Legged Lap Dancer


Across Front today

Today fried Green tomatoes:


Purple Turantula:


Samsational:



Sun Dazzle: such a good plant



Entwined in the Vine


Munson Bed



Humungausaur:

All the blooming is just a bit overwhelming; It has never bloomed so much for so long.

    Another one of your rolling peaks. The birdhouse with the kitty has Flying Trapeze at the bottom, does it not?

    Wowwww on the garden pics. Beautiful!! And the colors are great. And who can resist seeing that cat in the middle of it all. That Fried Green Tomatoes is stunning in a clump. It must really love your garden to put out that many blooms and all those buds yet to open. Wonderful post.

    Just beautiful!! Garden shots look great. So much color and so many clumps. Add all our rain to that fertilizer and maybe?? And the kitty standing sentinel under the birdhouse is adorable! And your Samsational bloomed!!

    Now that looks like peak! Fertilizing sure helps produce more buds and branching. And you have gotten quite a bit of rain, the best fertilizer of all! Flying Trapeze sure looks good at the front of that first picture. Fried Green Tomatoes is just going crazy with bloom. I love the combo of Navajo Pony and Long Legged Lap Dancer. Purple Tarantula and Entwined in the Vine look great too! I'm drooling over all the nice garden shots!

    I had so much trouble choosing and locating which photos to post I didn't realize Mr. Stripe, one of the feral cats I feed was in one that I posted and yes, Fying Trapeze in all its glory is near that birdhouse, Mantis. I don't know how you remembered that.


    Fried Green tomatoes has 26 scapes and it is a bud builder, Julia.

    every day I figure there will be a big drop off in the number of\ blooms. I had one day with fewer blooms and then it was on. again.


    We had a lot of rain before blooming started but then we went ten days with none and I used the sprinkler, Debra. I just keep taking pictures...It may be the fertilizer, Kate. We haven't had nearly the rain you have had until now.

    Wow, Kay, I just love the garden shots, just beautiful! And the garden kitty! 2019 in the fall was the 1st time I fertilized much at all, then last season I fertilized in spring and fall. I definitely saw more branching. Made a big difference in many daylilies, none at all in others. Main difference was increase in fan growth, which I don't want in most. Hate dividing! Fried Green Tom is on its 2nd year for me, 3 fans but looks like it is going to bloom pretty well. Hope mine does as well as yours in another year or 2!

    Thank you, Sherry, Nancy, and Brad. Nancy, I have cats wandering through my garden all the time.I feed a good many of them and they like to relax among the lilies. They also follow me in case I might have a can of food or some chicken for them although I feed at specific times twice a day. Brad, f the is the hot pink one, it is Wall of Fire. It is doing really well where it is now,
