I have packets of the tiny Garden Huckeberry seeds to trade for seeds from a bunch bean plant. My packet, if you get 90% or better germination, will make a 50 ft. row of tasty berries that will really load up with berries. It is said that a bush will produce enough for a pie--that's a lot! Post here, or email me with any offers. Thanks for looking.

I would like to do that! If possible, I would like the following: PEPPERS Pe-04 Elephant Ear Pe-05 Labradoe Bell Pe-06 Jalapino Pe-07 Chinese Giant FLOWERS Antique Quince -Pineapple Clematis Integrifolia Wine Hibiscus Send me your address via email and I will post the ones for trade to you. Thanks, Bonnie :0) Here is a link that might be useful: My Garden Album

Your message reads like you have a list of plants you want opinions on, but I don't see it, so I will answer a general question of what might work. I had a situation under a tree that got good morning sun, but afternoon shade, You might try heuchera or hosta, there are versions that like a little light but are happy in shade as well, also Japanese Painted Fern. If you want annuals, Caladiums would love that spot... terry

Woody it all looks so serene and peaceful absolutely lovely, a retreat from a hot summer's day. Do you have a seating area where you can just sit and enjoy? Right now we are having a June like we've never had before, June here is usually on the cool side with a lot of rain, not this year, everything is frying even with all the watering I've been doing. The flowers on the Rhodo trusses which usually fall when spent are drying crisp, as thin as tissue paper on the plant, same with the climbing roses, even with all the watering petals aren't falling, the flowers are just drying up, looks awful I hope this is not a sign of what's to come in the future. We are situated in a funny little pocket, sometimes my garden is ahead of others around here, sometimes way behind. One year we had a killing frost the end of August and did all the dahlias in while in other gardens they flourished for another couple of months. Most years we don't have a light frost until the end of October, early November. Last year we had a killing frost beginning of November right out of the blue, the weather had been so mild everything was growing merrily along and WAM! my Ayesha hydrangea really took a hit, had to cut it right back this spring so no flowers this year. But that's gardening for you sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. All in all gardens are magical places, full of joy, wondrous discoveries, contentment well maybe not when couch grass and herb robert raise their ugly heads lol, weeds and all there's no place I'd rather be. Starting on the 15th water restrictions we've NEVER had before, it looks like we might be down to hand watering in the near future, thank goodness all our rain barrels are full and capped off. On the bright side all the veggies are looking good, I mulched with a thick layer of straw before planting, fingers crossed. I ran around last night with my camera hoping to find something decent enough to post but everything just looks weary. Maybe one spot where the Campanula portenschlagiana is running rampant on the little rock wall, I'll try and take a picture later. Oh well this is the year for renovation, editing, replacing and planting something new and interesting when things cool down, hopefully next year things will look a little better. Annette
