| Oriental-Trumpet Lily 'Altari' | | 2008-07-10 05:24:45 | | Oriental-Trumpet LilyLilium 'Altari'Synonyms: OT Hybrid, Orienpet LilyThis Lily was blooming at the NYBG. It is a result of crossing fragrant Oriental Lilies with large Trumpet type Lilies. It is quite hardy (USDA Zone 4, with mulch) and was standing up without a stake, which is a plus in my book.This second flower is Spider Flower (Cleome 'Senorita Rosalita'). There are several reasons not to grow Cleome but this cultivar seems to have eliminated some of them. It supposedly has no scent but I did detect a little (not nearly as strong as the species, however), it doesn’t seed, it is spineless, and it is heat and drought resistant. This is my first time growing it so we shall see. It only grows to 24 inches and that is a lot shorter than the regular Cleome. I just planted it yesterday and will be watching it to see how it performs.... | | By: Digital Flower Pictures.com | | |

| Yellow Trumpet Vine (Campsis radicans 'Flava') | | 2007-08-02 11:56:00 | | Yellow Trumpet VineCampsis radicans 'Flava'(KAMP-sis) (RAD-ee-kans)Synonyms: Yellow Trumpet CreeperIt is nice to post a flower that I grew. I am happy with my Yellow Trumpet Vine and I like it more than the species and red type I am also growing. It took a while for it to start blooming but now every year it is loaded with blooms. I planted it in the stone dust base of the gazebo terrace and trained up on to the roof, which it has completely covered. I often see Hummingbirds at the flowers as well as butterflies, bees and some ants. It really only requires an occasional clipping when it comes down to far over the edge of the roof. It has never had powdery mildew or any pest problems. It is sometimes referred to cow-itch vine because it can cause skin irritation in some people. I have never been bothered by it but you may want to wear gloves when pruning it. It is not recommend for planting near buildings and may become invasive under good growing conditions.Here is a picture of the f... | | By: Digital Flower Pictures.com | | |
