Pelargonium report No.1 from my garden 2015

This is the first Pelargonium report from my garden for the season 2015.

Since I have most of my Pelargoniums outside exposed to weather and wind have this year been a slow one. Half the summer was cold and wet, but now in August when the heat is on is my Pelargoniums growing fast.

(On the photos do I have my favorite coffee mug next to the flowers so you get a sense of size, the mug is about 10cm/4 inches)

HAPPY THOUGHT (from a seed planted in January this year. A favorite since it is in the size of a smaller bush in the end of the summer. Beautiful leaves)

AUSTRALE (Wild fragant Pelargonium, smells Wild strawberries)

BONIFACE BUTTERFLY (with beautiful red stems)

CARNOSUM (Succulent Pelargonium)

STADT BERN (a favorite, always at my outdoor coffee table)

COTYLEDONIS (Wild succulent Pelargonium with a thick treelike stem/base)

DR WESTERLUND (Fragant)

FRIESDORF (Mini)

 UNKNOWN (Mini

MOSAIC PURPLE (Egg shell)

LEVINS (Zonal No name, I bought it from Levins at Gävle main square for many years ago and just love the half filled flowers that shifts in Pink-Peach)

More is to come shortly, See You soon, Per!

Everything is still growing, even more so the grass!

Just now I'm working a lot, both in Stockholm and my village so there is a lot of time spent on buses and trains.

So I really enjoy the few moments I have in my own garden, and are grateful everything still is growing and have a lot of flowers.

The only problem is that the grass growing in rapid speed just now, and I just don't have time to cut it :(

My goal to minimize grass and gravel is more on my mind than ever!

But everything else growing as well, and are looking good

This Yellow Calla Lily I have had for over 13 years in a pot, it seems to survive everything

 My fragant "Attar of Roses" Pelagonium was bought as a cutting for 3 years ago, never bloomed.

Here in Lövstabruk is it growing enormous and yesterday got it's first flowers

A LOT of my flowers are just going in to a second bloom for the summer :D

 Veronica & Magnus thriwing together

Fuchsias and Pelargoniums loving the late summer

And so does the Cucumber

Now I'm going to try to move the lawn, or call in a nearby farmer!

Have a great week, Per!
