Blooming Wednesday

Always something new blooming in the garden.
The funny thing is, I can always remember where I got each plant.

Bachelor's button from Craig's List.
Salvia from a yard sale.


Peach-leaved blue bellflower from Groff's Plant Farm.

"Husker Red" beardtongue from The Flower Wagon in Lititz, PA.

Love in the Mist from the Landis Valley Herb & Plant Faire.

Knautia Melton Pastels from Groff's.

Sweet smelling pink peony from an Ace Hardware store my mom worked at.

Beautiful! I love that first shot :)

I planted salvia last year but it never bloomed. I have no idea why, I am cursed when it comes to gardening, seriously.

Gorgeous photos Jen! I always feel lucky when I just one or two that turn out when doing flowers. I couldn't tell you where most of my flowers came from! LOL.

I used to remember where I got plants and what their names are and now I don't remember anymore. Either I'm losing it or it's too much to remember anymore. :)

I like the Husker Red because my husband is a former Husker from Nebraska. ;) Beautiful pictures!

I LOVE bachelor's buttons, but I haven't seen any in ages (not since my mom used to plant them). VERY cool that you got it off Craigslist of all places.

Your flower pictures are always so very beautiful!
