Erythrone gardens

[Erythrone]

Kevin: Sorry for answering to only one of your questions. I get my plants from many sources in Canada like Fraser Thimble Farm, Free Spirit Nursery, Vivaces de l'Isle, Hemerocalles de l'Isle and others. I also buy iris from USA.

Some other pics:



Cyp. reginae

Dactylorhiza maculata. Slow grower. I wonder if one day the plant will do a small colony... maybe when I am 100 ?

Paeonia Pink Hawaian Coral. A peony that loved the compost we gave it last fall.

Paeonia Alexander Woolcott. A compact red. No need for staking !

Paeonia intersectorial... Lollipop ? ? ? Singing in the rain ? ? ? I bought it as First Arrival (a pink one)

Cyp. Philipp

Paeonia Raspberry Charm

Paeonia Pecher. A wonderful fragrance

Clematis Blue Light. Unfortunatly not a reliable bloomer

Everything is so lovely. What is the blue flower behind Paeonia Pink Hawaian Coral? You must have a big yard to have so many lovely plants.

Ok. Excuse my wonderment. You've been showing us all these beautiful flowers over the last several weeks, right. I mean, that's a tremendous amount of gardening. How many acres do you have? And this is in Canada right? Do you have staff? I find it amazing.

Yes, we are in Easterne Canada. We don't have staff. Our garden is on a few acres (maybe 3 acres). But the woodlot is 100 acres. Our USDA hardiness zone is.... 3. But almost all of our plant are zone 4 or 5. The secret is ... the snow cover!

My boyfriend does the big works (by preparing the flower beds and sometimes by adding compost). But I am the one who plant, pull out weeds, fertilize, multiply, etc.

 

[Yoyo_Jo]

Wow, I didn't realize your zone is so low. Inspiring for me, for sure, as ours is Zone 3...

How old is your Cyp. Phillip? What sort of soil is it growing in? Do you do any amendments to the soil for your cyps?

Beautiful photos of your garden as usual. Love the peonies, especially that red Alexander Woollcott. Scrumptious! :drool:
