My name is Jennifer Dixon. I live in New Brunswick in eastern Canada (Zone 4). I have been gardening on and off for five years now and really enjoy seeing the fruits of my labour!
Relaxing after a hard day’s work
A beautiful sunflower (Helianthus annuus, annual) glows, with the sun behind it.
Tropical hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, Zones 8–10 or as an annual)
I’ve never seen a Clematis so full of blooms!
My lilies (Lilium hybrid, Zones 4–9) are like fine wine—they produce even more beautiful flowers each year.
Bearded irises (Iris hybrid, Zones 3–8) loaded with flowers
White bleeding heart (Dicentra spectabilis, Zones 2–8)

Very nice ! PS : Give that clematis more room to climb and odds are you'll be seeing an increase in blooms for years to come . Give it a little bit of a hair cut at the ends of a few of its "runners" . Cool roots , lots of sun for the green and a touch of organic fertilizer of one's choice in the early spring , and the odds are excellent . Keep up the great work .
Peace from the Mohawk Valley in central NYS .
Just the color of clematis I keep trying to grow but never makes it for long.
Wow you got the magic touch for that Clematis!
What a beautiful view you have for putting your feet up!! That sunflower is magnificent and the white bleeding heart. Lovely garden.
