« Part 4: New Perennial Blooms as of July 9, 2008 Part 5 of Grandma's Gardens series Part 6: First Attempt at Dahlias ... »

Below are pics of more new flowers that opened up this morning. What a treat!!! So thought I would share them with you guys. I am getting so much enjoyment out of this garden!!

I have to admit that out of all my Daylilies this Dwarf called Little Grapette is truly one of my favorites. I absolutely love the color. I brought a small piece of this little guy with me when we moved last year. I am really pleased with the growth this year.

This is the first bloom on my Rudbeckia Prairie Sun. Three idy-bidy plants were newly added this Spring to my front garden.

And, this morning as I walked down the front porch steps, this is what I was greeted with. My Pink Daylily had a lot more blooms opened from just the two yesterday. So had to snap a photo for you guys.
