Monkshood, growing in my garden, Toronto, summer 2006
Monkshood is a lovely flower that blooms in the fall. It’s flowers kind of look like a shoe or a ladies slipper or I suppose like a monkshood. Hence the name. These plants are highly toxic so keep your pets and young children away from them if you grow this plant.
A lovely hybrid tea rose – Scent_sation – that I grow in my Toronto garden It has lovely flowers when it blooms. Too bad it doesn’t bloom as often as I’d like it too!
Chionodoxa – delicate spring flowers. Aren’t these so pretty? I grow these flowers in pink, blue and white. They pop up in clumps in my front and back garden beds in late May.
This fiery flower is called Crocosmia Lucifer. It grows in large clumps and the spikes on which the flowers grow reach 4 to 5 feet tall. They are just stunning! So bright! They’re also fairly hardy.
