We recently purchased a house with some stunning landscaping. Only one problem, beyond the roses, clematis, and ivy I have no clue what most of it is or how to care for it. I live on the north Sunshine Coast of BC to give you an idea of where these plants are thriving.
Wow! I think I actually know a couple of these. Top, L-R unknown, Corylus avellana 'Contorta', Paeonia (Suffruticosa?) Next, Bergenia, Rhododendron?, Next, Picea Abies?, Digitalis purpurea, Magnolia?(maybe not) Next, Viburnum Davidii, Chamaecyparis pisifera?, Next, Vinca?, unknown, deciduous Azalea
Thanks, That gets some of them, The weird seed pod is on a vine and according to the neighbour it is some large pendulous flower.
first one is Wisteria, second Corylus avellan contorta, third Peony, fourth Bergenia, fifth Rhododendron, possibly 'Unique', sixth Weeping Spruce possibly Sargentia, ninth is Viburnum davidii, tenth is threadleaf cypress, eleventh is periwnkle, twelfth might be a deciduous azalea. I dont know the others.
Oops, my bad. Jimmy's right about the wisteria. Campsis has opposite leaves and a large calyx that's persistant on the seed pod.
Wisteria Corylus avellana 'Contorta' Tree Peony Bergenia Hardy Hybrid Rhododendron (but not 'Unique') Picea abies cultivar, probably 'Reflexa' Digitalis purpurea Hibiscus syriacus w/grape (Vitis) or relation behind Viburnum davidii Chamaecyparis pisifera filifera cultivar, possibly 'Sungold' Vinca minor Deciduous Azalea
Oh thank you so much! As I said we moved in in Nov. so I have no idea what any of these are. Seems like I got a really nice assortment. Thank you again.
mom2kat, I'll be expecting a few more posts in the near future as some of the herbaceous plants emerge!
I will update once we get some blooms. Thanks again. Now to get some images of the rest that I don't know to et you guys work your magic again.
Well here is the update, more later when I get the azealeas and wisteria pictures what is the not rose thing by my cat?
