It's time for the weekend garden parties... Cottage Garden and Fertilizer Friday drop by and see how gardens in your own back yard - to - gardens in other parts of the world are growing...isn't blogging wonderful?!
Here in North Florida everything is wet, wet, wet. I am not complaining at all...
photos were taken this morning.
Love, love the Dolly Madison Lilies!
Perennial Hibiscus with a visitor in the center...
Caladiums, dark Coleus and Begonia
Plumbago
This is part of the strip that was posted in my last post on the edge of our yard by the road. Marigold, short Celosia (you know if you pinch the blooms out of the Celosia the plant will grow bushier), Toffee Twist, Nasturtiams, Sedum filled wheelbarrow.
Potato vine returned in the wheelbarrow from last summer..
Turk's Cap....wonderful plant...and yes the color is even hotter in person.
Finally the name of this plant is back on file, Dicliptera superecta. Google Hummingbird bush, no. Hummingbird shrub, no. Hummingbird plant, yes!
Salvia coccinea is a native. I adore this color, I also have the scarlet color growing in the middle of the strawberries....yes, they are on the ever growing list of garden chores to be relocated.
I want to give a shout out, Thank You! to all of you for supporting my new online craft business. Requests can be made via FB or purchased via my Etsy shop. Both links located on the top right of this page. Imagine....people like my art! Feel free to like my FB page... :)

Hi Darla. Oh your Dolly Madison lilies are so pretty and that native salvia is gorgeous. Glad you are getting some rain for your gardens.

Hi Darla,
Your gardens are looking fantastic! Don't give up yet on your 'Wine & Roses' Weigela. I enjoyed seeing your pretty blooms. Thank you for stopping to visit me.
Imagine, people like your art. And your gardens! Not hard to imagine at all. Wet here too. I'm not complaining either. Hugs.
Hi Darla, you have some bloomin beauties there. I love Sweet Potato Vine. It is just an annual here, but trails clear to the bottom of my rock wall. I enjoyed your beautiful garden.
Hugs,
Jann
Here in central Florida everything is wet wet too!
Dolly is a beauty! We'd take a little rain right after wheat harvest is done! Enjoy your flowers.
Congrats, Darla, on your Etsy and FB business.... That is so neat!!! You've come a long way, Baby, in a few years!!!!
We have some lilies that look similar to yours...
I tried to grow Caladium here --but it didn't do well. So --I just stuck with Hosta.
Hugs,
Betsy
Lucky you to get rain! None here and it is bone dry. Congrats on your new Etsy!
Hi Darla, Love your wheelbarrow with sedum and sweet potato vine. The plumbago is pretty too, as is the Turk's cap. Your garden looks great, Darla.
Dolly Madison is a stunner. Love the color. Pretty hibuscus. Caladiums and coleus and begonia look nice together. That is what I have growing together in the shade garden. Hope you have a nice weekend.
Beautiful garden. We live in a wooded area and unfortunately some of my favorite plants are considered dessert for the deer. Thanks for sharing yours.
The Dolly Madison lilies are such a striking colour. I wouldn't mind that shade in my garden! All of your plants are lovely.

Your garden is quite beautiful, so are your photos. You are lucky you've got rain, I've been watering for the last two day. Oh wow my water bill! Thanks for stopping by!
The color of those lillies is beautiful! I gotta get me some of those.
Hi Darla,
Thanks for the lovely garden tour, how lucky you are to have salvia as a native! I am your newest follower...
Happy gardening :-)

I long for my lilies begin to bloom. My hibiscus is a common houseplant, but it soon begins to flower. Yours is so beautiful in color. I wish you a great week! Zinnia
What a gorgeous garden you have! And the caladium, dark coleus and begonia combination is just gorgeous. I was just talking to my mom yesterday about caladium, and she said it was grown with black mondo grass and red salvia to line the driveways of big fancy houses in Mobile, Alabama, where she grew up.
