First is Dwarf morning glory, convolvulus tricolor is finally in bloom. I tried several times to grow it last year but could not succeed. This plant i sowed in November and it flowered after 5 months of sowing. Seed germinated very quickly. Plants are low growing and leggy. Must pinch them to have more shoots and more flowers. Flower is smaller as compared to tall morning glory but maybe because i let it flower too soon instead of establishing it a little further. Flower lasts a day only. Better grow it in masses.Cultivar is Royal ensign blue.
This is Nigella damascena, love in a mist. A close relative of Nigella sative a common herb with local name Kalwanji. Plant is leggy and needs support. It was a sow and forget plant. Just scattered the seeds on soil and that is it.
Double daylily is not a common sight in lahore. They are expensive and not easy to find. Only private collectors buy from abroad. This is a named one but not sure which one it is.
Last but not least, This pink aquilegia is blooming under the neem tree. It is obvious from the picture that plant is not in very good health. But what else can you grow under a neem tree? Some mildew or fungus affecting it. Very pretty macro though.

Wow…such a wonderful array of beautiful flowers!! I too love to garden…but only with flowers – not much on ‘food’ gardens.
Sorry I’m so late in getting over to visit with you since you left your comment in my blog …I’ve been feeling poorly with a bout of the flu. Hope your week has been treating you well, and I wanted to thank you for stopping by.

Your flower are beautiful it is so interesting to see flowers that don’t grow in my part of the world. Thanks for stopping by, you asked about the second flower in my pictures it is common name is, foam flowers (sorry I don’t know it’s latin name).
