Wow on all fronts, I especially enjoy the stargazes they look great.

 

Are they tough to look after? I would like to plant some of those in with my roses for next summer.

I water them my wife must have planted them a few years back because they just appeared, she doesnt garden or anything so i took it over, horticulture is my background. IMO lilies just grow regardless, I had worms last year on my day lilies and they where crap, some didn't open, the ones that did where half eaten anyways they come back every year, ive only got two stargazers but am happy that a new plant grew this season, hopefully next year we'll get a couple more. Ive only recently took to growing my own flowers the last two three seasons, I really enjoy it, cant wait till next year!

How is it that I'm just seeing these pics???

Probably 'cuz I've been pretty busy fishing every day for the past week, I reckon.

 

Great shots, dude!

I do love me some flower pics.

My wife loves stargazers. I used to think that they were gorgeous, but stinky.

I guess they grow on a person; now I like walking into the house to find the aroma of stargazers permeating the whole place!

 

Man, those fennel flowers sure do protect their seed pods; would not want to sit on one of those bad boys!

 

I saw these flowers alongside a mountain stream on Thursday; they seemed very popular with the locals...
