- We know that we will be competing with the early birds for its fruits but it is so special to pick your own, home grown blue berries Vaccinium corymbosum in summer time!
- They are the Antioxidant SuperFruit from nature. They have so many great qualities like: Healthy Aging; Anti-Inflammatory Benefits; Cancer Prevention; Urinary Tract Health; Protection Against Stroke; Heart Health; Vision Health and more.
- Check out Wild Blueberries... Natures Antioxidant Superfruit.
- Let me show you now the blossoms of our blue berry bushes in our garden...
- Bumble bees feasting on the pollen...
STAY HEALTHY!
- On Sunday our Admiral Semmes Azaleas were weeping... look at their tears!
- The rain was so bad that I only had little time in-between showers to catch this for you!
- Such stunning blossoms from the Admiral Semmes Azalea make up for less sunny days.
- Only too bad that from an all week rain period they are badly damaged and we have to wait another year for capturing their beauty.
Admiral Semmes Azaleas are from the Confederate series in Our Garden
This is from last year...
Such a lovely yellow...
- Don't you agree that making a Garden Tour from Book an Event with us is worthwhile even when things look wet?
- Instead of tea or coffee with cake in the gazebo we of course can move inside...
Another variety in a paler yellow...
They all look so beautiful!
We actually got 2 Admiral Semmes Azaleas...
- Above you see Carolina Jasmine in the rain on Sunday...
- Regardless the tears, they're absolutely gorgeous and so fragrant!
- Our FIRST blooming roses! Rosa banksiae 'Lutea' Rose 'Lady Banks'.
- An old southern Garden favorite, this thornless climber has abundant but small lightly fragrant double yellow flowers.
- This rose is very adaptable and vigorous and requires much less special care than most roses. Native to China and available at Woodlanders.
- Two weeks ago our Forsythias were blooming at their best.
- The weather was warm and sunny at that time. Things have changed since Friday, last week...
- Forsythias make me always happy as they're telling that spring is advancing...
- Below you will see some Narcissus Hawera, they're late blooming. We have them spread from early till late blooming varieties.
- They're a small, yet elegant variety and fragrant as well.
- This year the Chinese Snowball Viburnum Viburnum Macrocephalum is blooming a lot earlier than last year. But since the photos from past Sunday turned out too dark due to the rainy weather I will post last year's for you to have a better view. Their huge and pure white balls are stunning, provided that the weather is cooperating...
- On March 14, I took these photos from our Viburnum Tinus. This is an evergreen shrub with rather leather like leaves, that produces pinkish white fragrant blossoms in early spring. This one is from the Durio Nursery in Louisiana.
- In German this is called: Lorbeerschneeball or Mittelmeerschneeball...
- Okay, coffee and tea with cake is served in the gazebo after your Garden Tour from Book an Event with us and by now you know your way around!
