Diabolo’s Beautiful Blooming!

Because Japanese maples don’t like to grow in my garden (tried several times), 

I have to content with Physocarpus opulifolius ’Diabolo’ - Purppuraheisiangervo. 

Of course it is not as delicate and charming as Japanese maples, but it is modest,

thrives without no care and blooms this abundantly!

The advantage is also that it selfseeds and the little seedlings are easy to see.

This is also a rapid grower and I have donated many seedlings to friends and family.

I have also yellow-leafed Physocarpus opulifolius 'Dart`s Gold’ - Keltaheisiangervo,

and I like its lime foliage colour. This one grows in a very hot & dry spot,

and is not looking very lush.

Heinäkuu - July

Job done - the babies are ready to fly! - Idänunikko on hoitanut hommansa, vauvelit valmiina maailmalle.

The Makrotex Challenge this week is JULY.

It is has been cold & windy but a lot is happening in the garden.

There has appeared more buds in this beauty <3 - Lisää nuppuja on ilmaantunut sinivaleunikkoon.

Clematis integrifolia starting. - Kellokärhö nupulla.

Rodgersia aesculifolia is like lace. - Sormivaleangervon kukat on kuin pitsiä.

Woollen socks have come in need in this cold. - On ollut niin kylmää että villasukkia on tarvittu.
