Gardening Between Denver and Boulder - Favorite Plants of the Day

By
Real Estate Agent with The DiGiorgio Group

My Arvada, Colorado yard is packed full of gardens, and I love them. They add so  much beauty and pleasure to my life.

I started sharing a favorite plant of the day on Facebook, and so many people told me they were using my tips, and keeping track of them for when they have their own garden. So of course, I thought a blog post would be a great idea!  

Here you go - three at a time! And here's a link so you can read my next Gardening Between Denver and Boulder post.

 

 

June 16 - Favorite plant of the day - mockorange 'summersweet'. Blooms in mostly shade and smells like gardenia

June 17 - Favorite plant of the day - clematis Durandii - cuz it starts to bloom early (has been over a week already), blooms all summer, and has these gorgeous big blue blossoms. This one has gotten the most response so far.

June 18 - Fav plant of the day - true, she has delicate pink blooms that butterflies love, and the dark stems are dramatic even when bloom is done, but what I really love about this plant is her awful name - beardtongue.

I write posts on real estate issues and local events in the Denver metro area, especially those *communities between Denver and Boulder, as a public service. My hope is to give people an idea of the 'flavor' of our community, in case they're new or moving to the Denver area.

I am a residential real estate agent, happily helping folks buy a house or sell a house in the beautiful and friendly *suburbs northwest of Denver.

*Arvada, Broomfield, Lafayette, Louisville, Superior, Westminster; also Thornton, Golden, Wheat Ridge, Northglen, Lakewood

Very nice.  The Clematis Durandii is quite unusual with the helicopter looking petals!
