This Clametis x cartmanni ‘Joe’ is blooming for the first time in the garden. It’s been in full bloom for about two weeks and more flowers are still opening up. Originally I meant to have this climb a metal arch, but, that didn’t happen! It seems happy enough being supported by a bamboo pole for now. Growing next to it is Cotinus coggygria ‘Royal Purple’.
Various blooms and pre-blooms, and some more beautiful Cotinus foliage.
Solanum umbelliferum var. incanum ‘Indians Grey’
Rhododendron linearifolium
Callistemon
Solanum umbelliferum var. incanum ‘Indians Grey’
Grevilla ‘Porinda Leane’
Magnolia laevifolia
Cotinus and Cali Lilac
I’m not sure which I like better, the blooming California Poppy or the spent one.
And the foliage!
OMG, could that clematis have any more flowers on it? I think not. How beautiful. And I obviously need to check my callistemons to see if they’re budded up too…
