    I want to fill two spots in my raised bed with a great cut flower this weekend. I live in Sonoma County, CA (not sure the zone). One will be full sun and one part sun.

    Can you tell me your favorite? Even if it isn't hardy in my zone, a girl can dream.

    ;)

    Love my phlox for color and fragrance. The starts took a couple of years to create nice sized clumps, but now they are all over my sunny beds. If you keep them dead headed (keep picking them) and have different varieties you have blooms most of the summer. I have whites, pinks, lavenders and purples.

    I like tulips and snapdragons.
