Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day – June 2011

Lots of morning glories on the balcony:

'Star of Yelta'

'Light Blue Star'... this variety seems to be a little colourblind...

'Carnevale di Venezia' and volcanic sorrel... and I have no idea how that got back there, I planted 'Morning Star' in that corner, not 'Carnevale', but they're awesome, so that's fine.

 

And because they're so awesome, more 'Carnevale di Venezia' which shouldn't be growing in that corner at all.

OK, not so perfect-looking, but this is my first Ipomoea tricolor this year.

'Sunrise Serenade'

Oh yeah, and Thunbergias.

I bought this Thunbergia for the red flowers, but ... well... most aren't red. 😦

The bedroom windowsill, full of nasturtiums:

There’s also Oxalis triangularis in there, not blooming too much yet, and lots of O. tetraphylla in front of the kitchen window, but those flowers are only open while I’m at work – just as with the O. articulata on the balcony. But the other plant in the same bowl as the O. articulata is still blooming magnificently in the evenings – I totally love it! My favourite picture in this batch:
