Bright Yellow and Brilliant Pink Flower Photos

Happy floral Friday and welcome to "this week in my Maryland garden!" The yellow coreopsis started blooming this week and the little plant is full of sunny flowers.

The pink evening primrose plants have spread even more and are filling out the space under our two dwarf lilac bushes. From a distance it looks like a mini hedge of pink flowers.

The Stella d'oro yellow reblooming day lilies started flowering this week too.

 As did the yellow primrose. Apparently the high temperatures are good for starting flowers.

I planted this little calibrachoa in early spring. It hasn't grown much so maybe I was too early but at least it's still putting out some pretty flowers.


Thank you for visiting! I hope you enjoyed this week's photos. May God bless you!

Happy floral Friday and welcome to "this week in my Maryland garden!" Right now the angelique tulips are the star of the yard.

 I think they look even prettier from above.

 These pretty yellow pansies survived the winter in a pot. A pansy can be tough.

 I love the different shades of yellow in the primrose above.

And this red primrose with yellow accents is lovely too.

What's blooming in your garden or area right now? 

Thank you for visiting! May God bless you and yours!

Day Lilies, Carnations, Pansies, Primrose & Fire Poker Lily

Yellow day lilies with raindrops: Copyright © Phyllis Wheeler, 2015
Happy floral Friday and welcome to "this week in my Maryland garden!" Our Stella d'oro day lilies (a repeat blooming variety) have started flowering. I love that we get a big rush of blooms now and they'll trickle in through frost.
Pink carnation: Copyright © Phyllis Wheeler, 2015
This is our first carnation ever. I planted them last spring but only two of the four plants survived. Neither bloomed last year but I'm thankful that now they are both blooming. The flowers are much smaller than florist's carnations but it's neat to have our very own.
Yellow and burgundy pansies: Copyright © Phyllis Wheeler, 2015
My husband warned me that he's taking the pansies out this weekend so this is my last pansy photo until fall. I'm glad he gave me advance notice so I could get this shot with raindrops on the petals.

I'm really loving the yellow primroses (thank you, Mary!). I know I shared a photo last week but this week's has raindrops on the petals so hope you agree it's worth posting again.
Torch lily: Copyright © Phyllis Wheeler, 2015
Apparently it's been three years since I posted a fire poker lily photo! I believe they're also called torch lilies. My photo from three years ago was actually better (because the flowers were fresher) but I thought it'd be nice to have a new one and this is likely the last week to get a photo. All in all, it's a lovely time in my Maryland garden.

Thank you for visiting! I'd love to hear from you! May God bless you!

What's blooming in your area? What was your favorite photo in this post? Do you have any happy memories that go with these flowers?

Primroses, Roses, Begonias, Dahlias and Lobelia

Yellow primrose: Copyright © Phyllis Wheeler, 2015
Happy floral Friday and welcome to "this week in my Maryland garden!" The yellow primroses that my kind friend Mary gave me last year have multiplied and I'm thrilled. They brighten up a mostly shady part of our yard and are visible from two different windows.

The hot pink and light red roses seem to be doing the best this year and are still covered in beautiful, bright blooms. The Mr. Lincoln rose we planted last year has only produced one flower so far but it was huge and delightfully fragrant. 
Yellow begonia: Copyright © Phyllis Wheeler, 2015
The yellow nonstop begonias are still going strong and I love their very large flowers (much larger than the traditional begonias we have in another area).
Burgundy dahlia: Copyright © Phyllis Wheeler, 2015
 Last week I shared my new yellow and sunset dahlias and mentioned that we also added a burgundy dahlia and here it is. I think the sunset dahlias are my favorite but I love them all.
Blue lobelia: Copyright © Phyllis Wheeler, 2015
I debated between sharing this lobelia photo or one of my echinacea photos. The lobelia is thriving in my window boxes and the echinacea just started blooming this week. But I had a much nicer echinacea photo in this blog post and don't think I've shared a lobelia photo before so picked the lobelia. They are more of a true blue in person even though they look kind of purple in this photo.

That's all for this week's garden tour. I hope you'll join me again next Friday to see what's blooming in my Maryland garden.

I love hearing from you and I'm always interested to learn what's blooming in  your area! And what your favorite photo of the post is. Last week the sunset dahlia won the most votes and is the reader's favorite. Thank you for visiting and may God bless you!
