~ALPHABET SOUP U-V-W~

[MareE]

We're into the final str-r-r-r-retch now, folks! Mr Sun is shining on tons of Ubiquitous garden clean-up to do... err, list... this morning. Actually, Mrs Moon was just as bright last nite.
Ladling[sp] off with one U-V-W set.

~U~ UP ON THE ROOF is sing-alongable. lah-lah-hah

~V~ Spent more time (and I daresay more coinage) at the local VEGGIE MARKET than in own veggie patches. [rueful unsmilie attached]

~W~WHITE TRILLIUM dwells in a miniscule backyard wildflower patch.

I will do two posts because I have three pictures for V and W ... hope that it is ok.

Another trail picture.This plant is a bother to walk through but some lovlies visit it.

Vetch ....

This little dear sprouted up by my front step so cute,and it is my provincial flower.

I'm going to suffer withdrawal after the soup ends! It's been an wonderful diversion.
Thanks to all the hosts and creators.
I have a V and 3 Ws. The hosta was a nice surprise. It was a sport I'd separated from Paul's Glory. I planted it in the back of the garden, as I couldn't throw it out. So I was pleasantly surprised when it turned into this blue hosta. Folks on the hosta site identified it for me.
Reen, that's a gorgeous clump of veronica. Do you know which one it is?

Ville de Lyon clematis

Wheaton Blue hosta

Succulent Wreath

White Kiss lily

Beautiful captures, everyone!
Whatever whichway you post your garden beauties is OK, Laura! ;o}

I've got Vetch and always forget to take its picture. Of course if a Monarch lit on one, cammie would appear a might quicker! Your photography eye just gets lovelier.

Reen, I'm looking for a a lone red Snapdragon among your Vesuvius Campion and don't see one . winklaff Think I have Veronica somewhere....

Marie, I'm a 3-4 year practicing watcher/grower of Hostas and your Wheaton Blue is a spectacular sorprise, alright! Like the White Kiss lily far better than the Easter Lily. ;o}

Loving the U V W's, here are mine.
U for Umbrella Plant also known as Podophyllum peltatum or Mayapple

V for Verbascum This one sprawled over the ground vs standing upright but I still love the clolour.

I have two verbena - first is Verbena hastata

The other is Verbena bonariensis it self seeds profusely and last year, having an empty space, I allowed it to do so.

For W, I will show what I started doing with my rock walls. Fill the cracks with small plants.

You folks are a hard act to follow!

First tho...that was a lovely enormous golden moon last night indeed, MareE...at 5:30 a.m. today!

I have some Verbascum...purple spikey.

Some Wallflowers for my Nice Niece.

Some Wisteria.

And finally, a little sign of Spring, 2012.

Wanted to post the pic of the one wisteria again, but posted that right after it quit blooming . Was the best year ever for that particular wisteria.
So instead will post a creeping Veronica, and a White Monarda

[Lizcordysmum]

Was my worst year for Wisteria, and I'm praying my jinx is over. I fed a clematis lots of comfrey tea, which soaked thru the pot into the Wisteria soil. Don't know if that's what did it, but I was so disapointed I could have cried.

The clematis was very happy.

Love the blue of your Creeping Veronica! I just cannot get ground cover to grow well, except for wild buttercup, periwinkle, and catmint, all of which are wild and invasive here, demmit!
