Interesting shrubs, ruweiss! The scented lilacs are among my favourites!
Leena, I like the white daphne, it looks so much brighter than the ordinary one! The changes of weather may be similar here, though resulting in pics similar to Yours 2 months earlier.
Gabriela, I´m sorry - I changed by mistake Marc´s and Your location for a moment. Of course, zone 5 will be later than zone 7!
Robert, Your garden is as colourful as ours only may be in summer! We don´t know these strong, bright reds, blues and yellows here at this time of the year. Diplacus aurantiacus was a leggy plant for me, indeed, and I wasn´t sorry when it passed away. Erythranthe bicolor is very pretty.
In my garden, the tree peonies are in full swing, this is a hybrid between ´Gessekai´and ´Major Howel´.
Paeonia rockii and its first generation hybrids succomb to the wet condtions here, but my seedlings of ´Gessekai´ pollinated with them do well on their own roots. This is another one from the same cross.
Again a seedling of ´Gessekai´, this time crossed with a nameless white F 1 hybrid of P. rockii. Both the pollinators died.
