Dahlias and sunflowers make a nice combination of color.
Above and below is the volunteer plant that I moved to this bed last year.
It was an unknown quantity to me but now with it flowering it's definitely a black cohosh plant.
It probably would have bloomed sooner if it was in full sun but its blooms are welcome in September. They have a slight pleasing fragrance.
This plant is right next to the cohosh and is an unknown.
These must be buds or even flowers. Anyone have a name for this one?
...my gardens are starting to look tired.
ReplyDeleteI plant sunflowers and the chipmunks dug up the seeds so I never get any flowers. Looks great but can't help you in the volunteer

Looking very good for September.
ReplyDeleteMy sunflower plants were all eaten before they had a chance to get going. You have done a remarkable job on your garden considering you haven't been there that long.
ReplyDeleteEverything is looking terrific. Enjoy them while you may for the winds of September are starting to stir.
ReplyDeleteThey look so lovely. My potted flowers were so beautiful but they all have now succumbed to the summer heat. I miss their pretty faces.
