Hi, my dear Hive Gardners!

Today is a great day because the first of my pelargoniums Leona Gallactica has bloomed.
This is really a big joy for me. I haven't added to my pelargonium collection for quite some time and this plant is one of four new ones I bought last fall. Of course, I counted on the honesty of the seller, because when you buy such seedlings, you do not always understand what you are paying for. But luckily everything worked out just fine! I saved the contacts of that girl and hope that this fall I will be able to buy a few more new varieties from her.

My skumpiya Golden Lady turns into a real beauty.

By the way, as for two more scumpies. Last time I complained to you that the nameplates were very poor quality and it was impossible to read what was written there! I rummaged through all my Internet correspondence and I still found it!

So! This is scumpia Cotinus Flamissimo

As you can see, all three shrubs promise to look charming and become a real decoration of the garden, especially in autumn.

And I also want to show off my hosts. I love these plants for several reasons. First, they are very easy to care for. Secondly, they can be perfectly used as border plants and as part of the composition. And thirdly... giant hosts perfectly mask the hole in the design of the fence that my dogs gnawed through! 😁

By the way! Rate my progress in growing a hedge of wild grapes! I planted plants last year. Seems like things are going well.

This plant is especially beautiful in autumn, when the leaves turn bright red.

And finally, my lilac! This year it is especially good. And the smell! The smell is simply divine!

That's a very beautiful pelargonium; never seen one with such a "full" flower before. And your lilacs are magnificent - they do have such a lovely scent.

Thank you)

I am really glad to see your beautiful garden in Ukraine. I imagine that still tough time continues in Ukraine. Great gardening job!

Thank you!

I really love the garden, everything looks very pretty 😍.

Thanks)

What a beautiful place!

I love how wild you have let it all be and what a coloured bush. It reminds me of a man I loved who thrived in such landscapes. Thank you for sharing.
