Peonies bloom in the garden beds, June rains rustling above them. A green beetle, hiding from the rain, lies in a bud, as if on a feather bed. The peonies want to shine in all their glory, to show off their finery to the butterflies, but an icy wind freezes the petals, and the rain and hail knock the color from the buds. The storm will pass... 
Here's an aster blooming in early summer, a large flower on a slender stem. Butterflies pirouette above it, and a sluggish bumblebee sips nectar. Just look at the colors! There's white, pink, purple, and blue. Inhale the sweet scent of the flowers and enjoy this beauty! Good afternoon, amateur gardeners, summer residents, and vegetable growers! In... 
In the spring, our common phlox bloomed, surprising with its delicate beauty, spreading its bright bouquet, as if greeting the blue sky. Dew glistened on the flowers in the morning, its stems swaying in the wind, sending a fragrant aroma to everyone, and butterflies rushing to it for nectar. Common phlox is another spring-flowering perennial, growing... 
Blue flax grows here and blooms in June, delighting the soul and the eye, dazzling with beauty, like a bright blue wave, swaying in the breeze, and its blue flower reflects the sky! Perennial flax is another new plant in the flowerbed, which has captured my heart with its beauty and decorative qualities. I sowed it... 
Spiraea—a forest dweller—is as elegant as a bride in bloom. She greets summer in a white gown and smells of intoxicating flavor. Leaves on flexible branches and delicate white flowers bend to the ground under their weight, and the bees all fall in love with her! In mid-May, spiraea began to bloom. On... 
Subulate phlox, such enviable flowers, lying on pillows, gazing up at the blue sky. Fragrant flowers of unprecedented beauty, creeping branches so thorny! Subulate phlox bloomed at the end of May. And immediately transformed the still-empty garden with their magical blooms and fragrance. Why empty, because in the garden there are still... 
The leaves are carved, the stems slender, the orange roses glow like flames. In forest clearings, along the riverbanks, the globeflowers are in full bloom—bright, flaming flowers! The honey aroma has drawn the bees. Summer is coming, it's hot, the sun is blazing! And here, the globeflowers are blooming! Outside the city, along the roads, along the banks of lakes, rivers, and streams, on... 
Good afternoon! I'd like to tell you about another of my favorite houseplants. It's called epiphyllum or phyllocactus. Commonly known as forest cactus, it's a perennial flowering plant from the cactus family, a succulent. It has long, flat or triangular shoots with a wavy edge along the stems. The edges of the shoots form... 
I'd like to tell you about this simple yet unusual flower. It has an exotic name – coleus. But among the common people, it's also called something else. I'll tell you how and why: stinging nettle. The reason is that the leaves resemble those of the nettle in shape and size. Indeed, one of my guests asked... 
Most plants are dormant in winter, and repotting them is not recommended. It's best to do this in early spring. But there are always exceptions to the rule. I repotted my violets at the end of November. They had already finished blooming, and it was easy to see which plants needed repotting. Saintpaulias are very hardy...
