A Future Sunset Part 3
This is the last part, so here goes… Tässä on nyt viimeinen osa… Det här är sista delen på det här inlägget… In the first picture: Some Nasturtiums (Tropaeolum ‘CaribbeanCrush’ looking a bit light / hiukan vaaleana / i sin ljusaste variant) would fit the scheme / krassit sopisivat / krasse skulle passa This Hemerocallis is waiting for a move / tämä päivänlilja odottaa siirtoa / den här dagliljan väntar på flytt Crocosmia ‘Lucifer’ and one of the best pictures I’ve ever taken (in 2004 or something with a very simple camera): perfectly co-operating butterflies and a really nice hybrid of Dahlia ‘Bishop’s Children’ Dahlia ’David Howard’ of course /…

A Future Sunset Part 2
The pictures were starting to pile up on my last post, so I decided to divide it into three parts. This is about the plants that I plan to include in my sunset border next year. Niitä kuvia alkoi olla aika hurjan paljon liittyen siihen mun edelliseen postaukseen, joten päätin jakaa sen kolmeen. Tässä siis taas kuvia niistä kukista joita suunnittelen minun auringonlaskupenkkiini ensi vuonna. Det började bli ganska mycket bilder i mitt förra inlägg, så jag beslöt att dela upp det i tre delar. Här följer alltså bilder som jag tänker ha i min solnedgångsrabatt som jag planerar att anlägga nästa år. In the first picture: I might consider…

A Future Sunset Part 1
A few things, among them Scott with the blog Rhone Street Gardens have been inspiring me during this summer and given me the idea to start a ”sunset” border next year. I have a spot that gets the evening sun, where some rather ugly black currants grow right now, that really is in need of a makeover. Besides getting the evening light the idea would be to use orange, apricot and red flowered plants, maybe even with a little yellow which I usually avoid like the plague. I already have a lot of plants that could move there next year: some Miscanthus ‘Malepartus’, M. ‘Morning Light’ and a Miscanthus that…

Late Summer
This picture is my entry to Gardening Gone Wild’s Picture This competition for this September. This is a link to the same picture that allows the picture to be saved. I had a hard time picking my entry, I like the picture above, I just wish it would be a bit better technically. Still the dahlias lined up in a fantastic way and the weather was co-operating, so I’m mostly pleased. The picture is a few years old and taken with my old camera. I’ve cropped it a bit and I’ve removed a small bug in Photoshop. It took a few tries to get the light right in the background…

Bulb Relief
I’m up to my neck in pitches, bureaucracies and php-something or others that leave me scratching my head, so it really felt like a mini-vacation to take a look at some garden pictures and order a few more bulbs. I’m ordering more of the same and getting a few novelties, all from Verberghe (eurobulb.nl) that would be quite affordable, but still costs a bit when you order up to 50 of the same sort 😉 I can’t live without my Phalaris arundinacea ‘Picta’ and ‘White Triumphator’ tulips, so even though I still have some I’m stocking up just in case. The narcissi are old favorites as well, except ‘Stainless’ that…
