Some of Courtney’s Favorite Flowers

Beauties from Buffalo

My name is Courtney Gorman , and I live on in Buffalo , New York . I have been a gardener for almost 20 years now . My love of gardening comes from my mother . She was a immense gardener . We would do several garden walk throughout the summer month almost every weekend . It amazes me what people can do with their yards ( big or small ) . Especially with thesmaller gardens , the imagination of what mass can do with their yards is unbelievable . I have intercourse to see all the unlike variation of flush and colour that are available . I love to see industrial plant that are unusual and different .

This is my 10 - year - oldrose of Sharontree(Hibiscussyriacus , zone 5–8 ) . It was a very slim tree when planted and now is a show - stopper .

These are my crazy daisies(Leucanthemum× superbum‘Crazy Daisy ’ , Zones 4–9 ) . They are one of my favoriteperennials .

This is a fuchsia(Fuchsiahybrid , Zones 10–11 or as an annual ) plant that I buy for the first time . It did passing well in thisplanterthat is sitting on an honest-to-goodness Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree dais . you could see some mushroom are growing off of the tree stump .

A petunia(Petuniahybrid , annual ) is sit on a wooden picture material body that was made for me by a dear friend of mine . This is a huge strike when people come to chatter my garden .

Another show - stopper is the contrast ofbegonias(Begoniahybrid , Semperflorens Cultorum grouping , Zones 10–11 or as yearly ) I embed every yr along the walkway to my front door . They last until mid - Octoberor until the first frost . They grow huge and are just beautiful in color .
