Fun in the summer sun. That’s what the Summer Vi

Fun in the summer sun. That’s what the Summer Vibes plant series from @costafarms is all about. As promised in my last post about these tropical beauties, I ran over to my daughter’s house to take their picture. Like the supermodels they are, I think these heat-loving plants deserve the pink house star treatment.

One thing I’ve been really surprised by the Summer Vibes plants is how well they’re still doing in their smaller containers. As you know, I’m a big fan of larger pots in my Oklahoma garden because of our extremely hot summers. However, with daily watering, these hot-weather-loving tropical plants are still performing well. Oklahoma is in for a heat wave this week so I may move them into larger containers very soon.

Also, I have them on the north side of my house when they aren’t visiting my daughter to give them some respite from our hot afternoon sun.

You can find the Summer Vibes Plant Series at your local @loweshomeimprovement now in the nursery section. They are such fun.

Pretty!

On rebloom these daylilies are just so pretty!

‘Father James Foster,’ ‘Red O’Kelly’s Fate’ and ‘Big Bird.’

You can’t help but love them. I sure do.

Let’s try this again. I can’t believe it’s July, and the grass is still green. So much rain this year.

A morning garden walk to my cutting garden. I don’t cut the flowers very often. I like leaving them for the pollinators.

I think having butterflies and bees in my garden is my favorite thing.

What about you? Who do you garden for?

My Oklahoma garden after yesterday’s showers. Today we’re focusing on my cut flower garden which I rarely cut.

Ha!

We got almost half an inch of rain yesterday so that gives you some perspective on what’s in the garden and how it just kind of refreshed everything. It wasn’t one of those hard blinding rains like we’ve had all Spring that have been so hard on the garden. Instead, it was mostly a gentle shower.

Let the summer flowers begin!

The daylilies are nearly finished with ‘Red O’Kelley’s Fate’ (Niswonger 2012).

Although Rudbeckia a ‘Goldsturm’ is a complete thug in my garden, I appreciate it this time of year because it stands up to the full sun and our summer heat.

Goodbye daylilies. Hello summer flowers!

Lilium ‘Scheherazade’ is beginning to flower.

Lilium ‘Scheherazade’ is beginning to flower. This time of year she scents the entire garden with her beautiful fragrance. This is an orienpet lily. Easy to grow. So far, we don’t have lily beetles in Oklahoma. Thank goodness!

When this flower blooms I always think about the heroine of the same name in 1,001 Arabian Nights, which was one of my favorite books as a child. I’ve always seen Scheherazade as a true female hero because she used her wits to not only stay alive, but also to prosper. She reminds me of Queen Esther in the Bible.

Both strong and resourceful women.

When I’m out gardening I’m not just thinking about weeding.

I love this wild border. I don’t write about it

The front of our house shows evidence of the rain

The front of our house shows evidence of the rain that has been falling for days and days. We live on a hill so all of the soil rushes down onto my brick sidewalk. As soon as it stops raining, I will go out there and sweep it all up again. But, for now, it’s just gonna have to look this way.

I don’t often show the front of my house because, honestly, I just forget. We do live in a log cabin, and we raised all of our kids here. Someday, we will turn it over to another family, but not today.

If you’d like to read about the entire garden and all of the separate little nooks, I have a new post up on my blog Red Dirt Ramblings. You know the drill.

My late June garden this year is happy and growing

My late June garden this year is happy and growing.

It’s also soaked.

Took those after 1.58 inches of rain. Three more inches fell last night. More rain tonight and continuing next week.

Prairie weather is always a case of extremes. I won’t complain about the rain though. It could be super hot and dry instead.

Remember 2011?

Daylilies’ dark side. Chief Four Fingers (Roberts 2002), Sparkle Britches (Elliott 2016), Ninja Storm (Goddard 2005), Fantasma (2014), Bible Grove (2008), and Tuxedo Gent (Pearce 2011).

Aren’t they just the most scrumptious confections? They look their best on cloudy days.

A storm is on the horizon so I got some good shots this morning.

Beautiful butterflies on Cheyenne Spirit echinacea. It is a seed strain so it is also a nectar producer.

I am such a sucker for daylilies. This is Hemerocallis ‘Man of Sorrows.’

I have to take my mom to the doctor today because she has terrible health problems, but I saw this outside, and I had to run and get a picture of it.

Everyone has struggles, and we must remember to capture beauty when and where we can.

I also believe we are not alone, and He carries our burdens with us.

I love Prairie Splendor echinacea. I found it at a small, local nursery in Stillwater last year, @bigcreeknursery.

It’s just starting to open.
I think I’ll write a blog post about the explosion of echinacea varieties. So many to choose from. What do y’all think?

No filter except natural, evening sunlight.

Calendula Zeolights is a fun annual now blooming in my garden. Start indoors in early spring. It’s a cool season flower. Edible too.

I love this view. It wasn’t destroyed in our latest storm.

I stand here often and reflect.

This is in shade. In front is American maidenhair fern. It had fabulous black stems.

The red flowers are Indian pinks, one of my favorite native flowers.

Hostas, oakleaf hydrangeas and lots of other shade plants are here. I love this garden. I knew much more about gardening when I put it together a few years ago.

No enhancement for these! They stop me in my tracks every morning.

May I introduce you to Dahlia Black Dahlegira Magenta Bicolor, A beautiful and unusual flower with a way too complicated name.

How about you? Did they stop you from scrolling?

I think I’m in love with ‘Phyllis’ marigolds. 💛💛💛

I bought the seeds on a whim early in February or late January. I started them indoors and then moved them to the greenhouse as they grew bigger. Then I planted them in my potager and next to my tomatoes in pots.

They were named after Judy Seaborn’s mother. Judy is the owner of @botanical_interests seeds and a good friend. I think of her every time one of their flowers open.

These aren’t tiny marigolds either. They are African marigolds, big and bold and tall enough to cut and bring inside.

You can also eat the petals. I think I’ll add some to a salad tonight if I can stand to cut them.

Thanks Judy for such a fun flower!
