Hello everyone,
I know it is only a couple of days since I took you around the garden but it is just bursting with color and I know it will be declining all too soon so I want to share it with you again.
The Limelight hydrangea is a new addition a year to two ago to this corner and I think it looks so pretty with the phlox and clematis and daylilies.
I took all these photos last evening when the light was good. it is good that i have a digital camera as I take hundreds of photos as I go around the garden.
The phlox is putting on such a good show now.
I love my clematis Jackmani superba.
there are some roses blooming
Blue Stockings beebalm-it has bluish stems too.
It looks good with the phlox and the hummingbirds love it.
Globe thistle is rather interesting I think and it looks good in bouquets too.
My Rosemoor clematis is such a beautiful color and prolific bloomer.
Clematis with Monkshood of which I have several varieties some will bloom in Sept. and Oct.
i grow some dahlias in big pots so they can be moved to fill in a weak area in the border.
This is a new hydrangea from last year.
I love the clematis in back -General Sirkorski,it is such a pretty color.
Ville de Lyon clematis.
Well, I hope you enjoyed seeing some of the abundant color that is in the garden now.
I am joining Show and Tell Friday at My Romantic Home again today- thank you Cindy for hosting.
Thanks to you too for coming along with me again today.
Have a good weekend,
Carolyn

I share your feelings, Carolyn... I know I'm always showing my garden post after post, and people must be tired of seeing same thing time after time, but my passion for my garden keeps growing as the seasons change and grow old... like you said, soon the earth will go back to sleep again... every lovely petal will ‘evaporate’ way too soon, and I just want to keep it a littler longer... a little for ever.... at least in memories...
Have a lovely weekend dear kindred spirit...

Sai, Carolyn, amo particolarmente l'abbinamento dei tuoi splendidi fiori con l'arredo del tuo giardino, rimango incantata ogni volta come una bambina davanti alle caramelle...
Buon fine settimana a te!♥

Wauwwwww....beautiful !! happy summer gardening weekend darling....love Ria...
Hi,
As always, your garden is beautiful, as are the photos you post.
Can you tell me - do you have deer that roam your garden? We have them, and they really do a lot of damage on our plants. I can't keep phlox, hosta, or even Sedum because of the deer. They also keep chomping on my new hydrangea shrubs so they're having difficulty becoming established.
Do you have that trouble, and if so, how do you get your phlox and your hydrangeas to be so full and beautiful and apparently untouched?
I never tire of seeing your beautiful garden tours. I too love clematis but here in N FL we don't see too many of them at the nurseries in our area. I'm not sure why but I do have three, a double white and two otheres that are both blue. That pink one of yours, I wish I could find it. I have never seen that Limelight hydrangea either. I will definitely put that on my list to look for.
As always, you are certainly an inspiration. Here in N FL, our heat and humidity has really stressed my garden so it's such a joy to see yours.

Hi Jenny,
No,we don't have any deer on Prince Edward Island so I don't have that problem-thankfully!
Thank you for your kind words.
Carolyn
Your garden continues to amaze me! You need to be published in every home and garden magazine around!
Dear Carolyn,
your garden is wonderful. I like summer with all the flowers and green!
Have a nice weekend

I enjoyed going with you on a tour of your garden. I love the 'Blue Stocking' bee balm, I must look for one to put in my garden. I hope you have a great weekend and take care.
Beautiful flowers Carolyn. I always enjoy seeing the birdhouse on the post.
I am at my provincial horticultural convention right now and I hired Dugald Cameron as a speaker and vendor. Told him how excited you were to receive his catalogue and he replied that he has quite a few customers in your province.
I picked up H. Little Lime from him as I already have Limelight.

Oh Carolyn, you have such a glorious garden. Just beautiful. So full of color.

Exquisite color and beauty Carolyn. I can only imagine what it must be like to sit quietly in your garden early mornings. What bliss!
Oh my..that is so beautiful, it doesn't look real.
Dear Carolyn,
You have the most beautiful garden I now! I enjoyed scrolling through your pictures. All those pinks, blues and purples! In my garden the decline has already started. Some plants are fading away. Even the temperatures are dropping a bit. I don't mind! We are so lucky to have seasons! I am already looking forward to the pumpkins.
Wishing you a lovely weekend!
Lieve groet, Madelief
Your garden is so gorgeous! Those hydrangeas are interesting, I've heard of the limelight, but that new one you showed us is so intriguing with its different shapes. Thanks for sharing.
Carolyn

I am visiting from Maison Decor. She nominated you for a lovely blog. I agree.
Your garden is still bursting with color and is just gorgeous. So many of mine are fading with the heat. It was a treat to take a walk among your beautiful flowers.
