That walking iris is spectacular and I love the pale orange canna. Are you growing them again this summer?
Carolyn, I agree: WEEDS!
Pepperdude--I would consider the backdrop to the flower bed. Is it your house? If so, you might want to consider the color of your house when...
I have a terrible weed in my garden that I have been trying to exterminate for years. It started as a darling foliage plant that I thought was...
Cherylad--I bought some one year and planted it in my perennial garden. Big mistake. I am still weeding it out 5 years later. Be careful!
Annette-- I am impressed you grew them from seed. I have never succeeded with lupines, and I have tried. BTW I see you are from Buffalo. I...
Hi Droopy-- Sorry, I wouldn't teased you about the 'oven' if I had put it together that you were communicating in a foreign language. Please...

Gail--your gardens are beautiful. I love your design sense. In the third photo, the garden is layered really well--lots to look at, a lot of...
I cheated and googled the whole question....
Hey Texas folk---we in the NE have been getting a taste of your growing conditions. 90-103 degree days & no rain. I am watching my poor plants...
I simply make a solution of water and bleach as my garden ornaments tend to become host to sooty mold and the bleach kills the black mold.
I agree, hosta would look nice. I would go with either a variegated variety like 'Patriot' or 'Loyalist' or a chartreuse or lime green variegated...
Jewell--I agree, great idea. Looks more inviting than stepping stones, which is what I have. I might make a switch!
Beautiful daylilies. Is the second one 'Strawberry Candy'?
