    Well, this spring I went into my greenhouse/potting shed and organized. So, here are two pictures taken of the Basement of my potting shed where I placed plastic shelving units and organized all the empty pots/trays/etc.

    How about Blister Beetles? In past years I only found them at night on my pasque flowers, but this year I found more beetles in the yard than other years, drowning in the dogs water dish, walking on the ground, etc. Apparently they can fly and so, that must be why I found so many in the yard this year. They have an iridescent blue coloring and you have to pick them up (and squish them) with gloves on because they will cause blisters on the skin if touched. If disturbed, they pretend to be dead as two in the pot are doing in my picture.

    Bellflowers or campanulas are one of my favorite perennials. This one is Birchs Hybrid. Another name for it is....Campanula portenschlagiana. Birchs Hybrid is easier to say.

    Bowl of Cherries has a dark pink flower and is a short campanula. It blooms for a long time. It reminds me of a miniature Cherry Bells.


    Bishops Hat (Epimedium)


    Biokova Geranium is a short small perennial geranium with pink flowers.

    Birchwood Parky Gold Hosta flowered for me this summer.

    Blue Mouse Ears Hosta is a hosta that I got this year. It had 2 eyes in July when I purchased it. I split it immediately when bringing it home. Here is one half of it, two months later. It must have at least 3 eyes in this division already. It has super thick leaves and a blue coloring to it.

    Now for a few irises...

    Ballycastle is a beautiful pink BB iris. I got it from Snowpeak a few years ago.

    Bangles is an MTB. The more I see it, the more I like it.

    Bantam iris

    Here is the emerging Bud of Blueberry Tart iris

    Now for the flower of Blueberry Tart, SDB...

    Blue Line, SDB

    {{gwi:724952}}

    I love the colors on Branded, MDB

    Boogie Woogie Lily has a huge flower. It is an Oriental Trumpet cross.

    Bertram Anderson Lungwort is a small lungwort with narrow pointed leaves.

    For phlox I have Becky Towe, a garden phlox.

    Bright Eyes, another garden type phlox, I also have. I really like the hummingbird moth that was on it this summer. This is one of the few times I actually saw one sitting and not fluttering about.

    And for sedum, Black Jack in the middle of June...

    Blue Carpet sedum is a soft blue-green ground hugging sedum. It is very pretty to look at.

    Here are a few sempervivums (hen and chicks)...

    Bellotts Purple

    Big Blue

    Bowles Giant

    Brown Owl in May. Sure has dark center petals compared to its outside petals.

    One of my Bunny Girl sempervivums, new to me this year, flowered.

    Blue Spectacle Tulip is a double tulip that looks like a mini peony. I love the purple-blue color of the flowers.

    Burgundy Lily Flowering Tulip is described as a flaring cup-shaped lilies with pointed tips. I love the burgundy color of this tulip.

    Once again, I will only posted the perennials that I have not posted in previous years. See previous years' threads for other B perennials in my yard.
