A few favorite flowers

Today we ’re in Orange , Massachusetts , visiting Linda Gelinas and her beautiful garden .

In undimmed shade , hostas(Hostahybrids , Zones 3–9 ) and daylilies ( Hemerocallishybrids , Zones 4–9 ) can boom together , creating an easy - to - charge - for carpet of perennials that looks good all time of year .

Hybrid daylily ‘ Old King Cole ’ with expectant flowers in an elaborate way patterned in various shadowiness of pink .

Daylily ‘ Matt ’ with rippled flowers delicately shaded in peach and yellow .

Petunia‘Pretty Much Picasso ’ ( yearly ) . This strange variety has bloom edged in green . The individual blooms last an exceptionally long time , creating an impressive flower presentation .

Gardeners who are deliberate to make their gardens a welcominghabitat for wildlifewill be rewarded . Here , the payoff is a Bronx cheer ’s nest with three beautiful blue eggs .

Most familiarazaleas(Rhododendronspp . and cvs . ) are evergreen , but there are also deciduous varieties , which specialize in strong yellowish and orangish colour , as see here . This may be the multifariousness ‘ Gibraltar ’ or another similar loan-blend .

Theshade gardenmixes a broad range of mountains of foliage colour and textures for time of year - long interest , and it takes advantage of the fact that many vigorous day lily will grow and bloom well in fond - shade conditions .

An honest-to-god tree stump has been grow into a flora stand .
