Garden Pictures Peak Blooming Pt 1 7/28/2016
Here are some pictures of the different flowers blooming in the garden at this time. Enjoy !
Garden Flower Pictures And Red Currant Harvest 7/20 - 7/27 2016
I harvested the red currants during this time period. I just glide my had along the cluster and gently pick the currants. I also pick the entire cluster and put it in the pot. It takes me about 2 days to do 2 bushes.
I sit on the porch to take a break from the heat or rain and remove the stems and leaves.
I ended up with 7 quarts of red currants. I froze them to make jam doing the winter.

The garden gets many animal visitors. A grasshopper is on a flower on the left and a deer is walking down my street. I surround the gardens with deer fencing. But every night the deer pass by looking for an opening to the all you can eat 24/7 snack bar!

Flora Peno Tiger Lily
Flora Peno tiger lily is a spectacular perennial I feature in the front flower garden. They self seed and have never disappointed coming back year after year. The large plants handle my Zone 4B climate.
They are in an area that receives plenty of sun and I keep them watered during the growing season. Having seen any insects damaging them.
Soil treatment for the lilies is discussed in the following blog post: Spring And Fall Bed Preparation
Preparing lily plants for winter is discussed in the following blog post: Preparing Plants And Garden For Winter

They can be purchased at all major bulb and plant suppliers.
They don't need any special care or soil. Check with your local Ag office to see if they can grow in your location.
Here is the growing sequence with calendar dates:
