Today in the Garden

Member Goly Ostovar shares her summer flowers.

Bougainvillea plants that I overwinter indoors.

Sacred Datura, planted from seed. Flowers open in a half hour window from bud stage to full bloom at dusk, they have a heavenly aroma and last for a day.

The amaranth, also started from seed, have tassels that are growing fast and getting longer every day. Amaranth is a great plant to let go to seed for wintering birds.

Canna lilies are putting on new shoots.

The Zinnia patch in doing well with some new Benary’s Giant varieties.
