Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day, July 2024

The 15th of each month is Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day over at May Dreams Gardens (see link below)

I am in the northeast corner of Mississippi, USA zone 7b

Two of my favorite plants bloomed in between Bloom Days. This Tiger Lily photo is from June 20th, and...

... this Hibiscus photo is from July 3rd. It is a bushy plant about waist high.

Now on to what is blooming today...

Althea, Rose of Sharon, is a small tree, Hibiscus syriacus

Burr Rose

Crape Myrtle

Turk's Cap,

Wisteria is a very invasive vine. It has to be cut back often to keep it from spreading.

A wildflower, Common Mullein, Verbascum thapsus

Happy Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!

I am linking in today with Carol at May Dreams Gardens for Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16

"Know ye that the Lord he is God; it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful unto Him and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endures to all generations" Psalm 100:3-5

  5. I love Rose of Sharon - I don't have any but our neighborhood ones are blooming. Your tiger lily is beautiful, and happy you gave us a look although it is no longer blooming. Also enjoyed your crepe myrtle. As you know, I long for the day a hardy-in-New York crepe myrtle is developed.

  6. The diversity of colour and form in flowers is really rather remarkable.

  7. Tiger lilies are lovely. When I bought my house there was a ditch running along the road on either side. There were tiger lilies growing in them. I miss them, but... it's nice to have street lights and a sidewalk too!
