This is a record of the day to day flowers and plants, in the garden, patio, and greenhouse here in central Indiana (USA). We are in Westfield, Indiana, a second-tier suburb of Indianapolis. Indiana is a small Midwestern State. Our climate is continental in many respects. We have cold winters (USDA cold zone 5) and hot, humid summer.

We try to grow interesting and unusal flowers here. Besides many daylilies (Hemerocallis), we grow native North American bulbs and exotic South African bulbs.
