First, one of my three arches is fully blooming and another one is starting to bloom.
These bushes were planted by our previous owners, so I don’t know their names. One of them has white flowers, and I think it is something very common as I see it around the neighborhood often. The other one has pretty red flowers, and I haven’t seen this bush anywhere else.
Here are the close-up pictures of both. Could anyone help me to identify them? Thank you!


A few months ago, I planted two raspberry bushes. I was so excited and hopeful when I saw them blooming. Now we have beautiful and yummy raspberries. Not too many, though. Only 4 -5 of them for my little pumpkin to enjoy when we check our garden every morning.
Finally, here is something else I am very hopeful about. My tomato plants are blooming nicely, but no fruits yet. Last year, I had a good tomato harvest, and I expect to have another one just as good this summer.
I am joining Tootsie for Fertilizer Friday.

Hello Olga, Your garden is looking so pretty! Those archways are so charming! Beautiful flowers too! The photos of your raspberry and tomato bloom are gorgeous!

Your garden looks great. Wonderful photos.
I swear I can taste that raspberry just from looking at the pictures. I got some raspberry canes this year, I'm hoping to get them planted eventually, but probably wont get any berries until next year.
Your arches look great, are these the same arches that used to have roses on them?
Sorry I can't help identify your flowers, but they certainly are beautiful!
No Troy, these are different ones. My third arch has roses. The rose is alive on one side, but I had to remove it on the other side. I planted a new one there. I don't know how long it's gonna take it to cover the arch.
I love those arches. They are really large enough to walk under, unlike so many. Someday I would love to have one. But three!! wow. And your berries look yummy!
just gorgeous. have a good friday. rose
It's all doing well. Your arch is just gorgeous. That is going to be one of my future projects, that and a million other ideas I have brewing.
Lovely shot of the raspberry-enjoy!
Beautiful garden, the raspberries would be nice on the breakfast cereal this morning. Have a wonderful weekend.
Beautiful Arbors!!
Great photography, Olga! The flowers on the arbors are so pretty!
Good morning, Sweet Olga! Beautiful arches! I think the pink flowers are a vine called Mandeville. I have grown them in pots but they do not survive the winter where I live.
So nice visiting with you!
Kindly, ldh
Sorry I can't help identify those flowers ... but they are both so lovely. Your arch looks fantastic!
Love your gardens. It's amazing how the pink/red flower looks like a trumpet on the trumpet vine. I'd love to start growing and harvesting fruits. We have a few wild berry bushes, but I'd like to get a few fruit trees. My tomatoes are about as far along as yours. But I have no trumpets on the trumpet vine yet. Mine need a lot more heat, then they last into October.
Wow love those arches! Yummy raspberries too - very year you will get more and more - thanks for sharing, Paula in Idaho
The Archways with the Garden gate are just Beautiful!! A Charming Cottage look :)I agree with "siteseer" @ least the pinkish colored arch does look like Trumpet Vine .....
That Raspberry looks so good!!! :) Have a great weekend!
Your garden is looking absolutely beautiful......we used to have raspberries & blackberries in our garden when we lived in Connecticut. You'll enjoy the raspberries this summer! Especially with a bowl of ice cream!
Just found your lovely blog. Your garden is so beautiful, loved watching these pretty flowers which we do not have over here in the Netherlands!
Wishing you a lovely weekend. xx
Beautiful flowers in the arch but I can't help with their names.
Your raspberries macro is amazing too.
Have a great weekend!
Olga, these are really beautiful pictures. I love the flowers, though I can't identify them. We don't have them in Michigan, I'm sure, unless they are in a greenhouse. I love your archway out to the gate. Very, very pretty.
Hope you are having a wonderful and beautiful day,
Susan

hi olga, i live here in California too. That top is soo cute and you are adorable. The pink flower you have is Mandavilla Vine...I had one but it did not do so good. I think my husband cut it's legs off after I moved it. Your arches look gorgeous.
Olga! what a lovely garden you have.
Some time share your beauty with us over at Friday Finding Beauty... you would fit in perfectly!!

Hi Olga, beautiful flowers! I am not quite sure what they are-possibly "Allamanda" and "Asian Trumpet Vine". I would say you should take a small length of cutting including a flower and take to your local nursery. There should be someone there that could identify for you. When you find out for sure, I would love to know--I will have to go on a mission to find me some--they are lovely. Lov'in that cute arched garden gate!!
Hi Olga
Your garden and photos are so wonderful! I am growing raspberry bushes this year also and I was so excited to eat the first few berries.
Thank you for correcting my mispelling of pysanky on my blog post from a few days ago--I corrected that! :-)
Pat
when I look at the first photo...all I could think about is how wonderful it looks and the gate is so tempting to open! Your garden has such a good feeling to it. Thank you for joining in today. I have very much enjoyed my visit...I hope you will join in again soon!
Your photos are exquisite! I love the rasberry! Thanks for your comment and visit. I have my African Violets in den windows that face the West. They get indirect sun all day long. Hugs, Kerrie
