Thanks esh ga. The Viburnum I had in mind is the Doublefile Viburnum: Viburnum plicatum var. tomentosum, although someone else was just telling me yesterday that it would really prefer more sun than in that particular location, and it's been a contender for another corner nearby, which gets some morning sun, shade, and quite a bit of afternoon dappled sun through the tall trees in neighboring properties. That's the place where I"m also thinking of pee-gee hydrangea. I should post on the design forum. I've been so frustrated...

I am looking for a gardener to do some maintenance and planting at a small property in Augusta, GA.

To Gail & Suwanee75: I have just returned from my trip to my daughters new home near Grovetown (West Augusta area), what a delightful experience. We managed to visit both Double B Plant farm & Greenthumb West. She has her calender marked for the big sale at McCorkles. I was able to purchase and get planted 2 types of Azaleas, many annuals in pots and hanging baskets along with 3 confederate jasmine that we are hoping will cover a large trellis area in her back yard. I was so thrilled to have received your help and would have been stuck shopping the home center nurseries without your advise. Perhaps next trip (when gas is more available) I will venture over to Caroliniana Nurseries. She has a nice start to her landscape, hopefully it will not overwhelm her. We added a solar birdbath/fountain and two hummingbird feeders (visited within 15 minutes of installation) along with a couple birdfeeders and a birdhouse. WHEW!!! Alot of yardwork in just a few days time, but it was certainly enjoyable. Thanks again ladies for all your good help and advise. I hope to make a Georgia gardener of this Indiana girl with time!! Sincerely,' Indianamom

There are many plants that have a scent and since the sense of smell varies so much from person to person, can you give any other details? Did it have flowers? Seed pods? Shape of the leaf? Anything you can offer may help someone to suggest something for you. FataMorgana
