Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day September 2017

It's hard to believe that it's the last bloom day of summer.  Like it or not, the autumnal equinox is only a week away.  Not a lot of new blooms in my garden this month, mostly late-staying guests at the summer party, lingering until Jack Frost breaks up the fun.

Fuchsias

Forgot to take pictures of the toad lily blooms.  Interesting but not impressive blooms on fabulous foliage.

Colchicum are putting on their much-anticipated show.

For the first time ever, I've had a problem with powdery mildew on my tuberous begonias.  Many look rather dreadful  but there are a few stalwarts that continue to crank out flowers.

Sweet Alyssum and annual dianthus.

Sweet little single rose.  

Salvia 'Amistad.' S. 'Hot Lips' has been blooming all summer out in the parking strip but hasn't made a single GBBD post.

Second round of inherited daisies. 

Agastache 'Whoreallycares,they'remostlyallthesame' 

Tropaeolum speciosum

Pelargonum in a loud and tasteless color.  Begonia seedlings appeared in this pot and I left them to see what they were.  Turns out they're Begonia boliviensis in bright orange.  The combination would certainly cause nightmares for proper garden colorists.

Begonia boliviensis

 Impatiens

Echeveria 'Topsy Turvy'

Grevillea 'Ivanhoe'

 Pinguicula 'Pirouette'

Abutilons

I knew the name of this once.

Fuchsia jungle.

Brugmansia

Japanese Anemone

Funny, I just looked at a few previous September GBBD blog posts and the flowers are almost identical to those in this post.  Maybe I need to try growing something different.

Clerodendron bungei

Not really flowers anymore of Angelica stricta 'Purpurea.' 

Persecaria 'Golden Arrow' 

Eryngium 'Big Blue' looking a little brown. 

Canna 'Tropicanna' 

Alstroemeria

Hosta 'Stained Glass' 

Oops, forgot to take pictures of the hardy cyclamen but they're also blooming.
