I almost didn’t garden much this year after the last few years (disappointment). This year? The colors and growth in our garden have been amazing! We have had this particular dianthus plant for years and I have NEVER seen it this color or brightness. The weather has been so cool and cold and rainy all spring – and still – our garden is looking like this. We finally had 70’s today and sun.
These are a different color red this year too………
Snapdragons – which are fading in color. They were the most vibrant pink I have seen in them (had this one for a few years too).
Sweet peas are growing like crazy. The pic doesn’t really show the beautiful deep green w/the white or the brightness of the flowers. I’ve been growing peas off and on for years and they have NEVER grown this large (and I’ve grown them in pots and in the ground).
And our strawberries?? We’ve had these plants (there are 2) for 3 years now? 4 perhaps? I’ve had them in the ground to get some growth – and in pots – and nothing much happened – until this year. Now they’re growing like wild!
nice!
Something is stimulating nature and making it look spectacular! The last time I’ve seen colors that brilliant was around 2012.
