Star jasmine will completely cover a fence. It will appear to be a hedge. This will take a good amount of water, but so would a rose. If you want another rose option, 'Secret Garden Musk Climber' would probably be faster than 'Iceberg' to cover a fence. Blooms maybe even more than 'Iceberg', and fragrant too. Blooms much better than 'Sally Holmes'. Other vines that will cover a chain link fence are Lavender Trumpet vine, Clytostoma callistegioides, or another trumpet vine called 'Tangerine Beauty', Bignonia capreolata. These are faster and somewhat easier than Star Jasmine, and with a longer blooming period. It's a good idea to cut vines like these completely to the ground every 5 or 6 years so they don't get too woody and leafless at the bottom. As much as I love roses, they are not the solution for every spot in the garden. Look at the star jasmine in the upper left hand corner of the photo. See the fence? No? That's what it does. Same for the other vines. Thanks for that link, roseseek.

I finally made it out to Cicconi's and it was only a half hour drive from my father's in Colts Neck. I spent 3 hours wandering greenhouses and kept forgetting where I'd left my cart. I had 3 things I needed from their availability list but ended up with more than 3 plants! In one of the back houses was where I found the Hakone Beni Kaze grass whose internet photo grabbed me but the mail order prices for a 3-5 inch pot didn't. It's still a visible plug inside the quart but I'm leaving it in the container sunk in the garden to grow on and baby for the next year. I'm hoping I have it good light condition to achieve the burgundy, red & pink coloration in Fall but with enough shade so it doesn't shrivel up. Cicconi's prices for gallon perennials were almost on par with some other places but they had a great selection and people were extremely patient and helpful. The prices for good size plants compared to mail order, tops-lopped-off little starters were great and you get to actually see a plant in its natural state when you buy and growing the first year. Got more Asclepias Incarnata (they were out of Tuberosa-the Monarchs will have to deal with it), NY Ironweed, Heuchera Amethyst Mist, Pink Jewel Fleabane (after I saw a Spring Azure testing the nectar right in front of me), a huge Sedum Vera Jameson (funky succulent, not like its photos but a facinating stunner) and some Sweet Basil since my little seedlings won't be "Pesto sufficient" for a LONG time. The 2 Lamium Purple Dragon I got from Gasko's are fading quickly without growth or flowers while another $3. Lamium 3 times their size I got at a roadside plant seller on northbound side of Rt. 35 (south of the light at Costco in Hazlet) is flourishing and blooming its head off. I always saw this roadside place too late in zipping traffic to stop in but was keeping an eye out for it last trip up that way to Lowe's & Dearborn. I also got a Eupatorium Rugosum Chocolate (terrific burgundy tinged foliage & can't wait for fall white blooms), Buddleia Red Knight (in huge shrub pot since nowhere really to put 5'x5' plant in full sun), Salvia May Night, unknown electric blue/purple Salvia, Curly Parsley for Swallowtails and a few six packs of annuals for mostly shaded garden. Total only $36. for all that and they're doing very well. I didn't have to make a stop at Dearborn for anything and they wouldn't have any plants I got at roadside plant seller anyway except for Salvia May Night most likely. Early Saturday morning before food shopping I stopped in at Colonial Nursery on West Front Street just east of Middletown-Lincroft Rd. in Middletown. I never knew they existed until finding them listed as retail vendor for some national supplier. They had 2 year old Dwarf Goatsbeard for $9.95 that was 3 times the size of mail order gallon I got last fall and more than a foot tall/wide Astilbe Fanal that was a nicer shade of burgundy/raspberry than I perceived from online photos. It's not a huge place buy neat and clean with a good selection of plants not everyone carries in such pristine shape. The Fanal looked washed out and rangy at Cicconi's and price was the same. Next year I'll have to make it out to Cicconi's earlier in the season to look around when things haven't gone through a withering heat wave. I probably don't "need" much more to fill in what I can at my father's but there's always a chance I'll see some perennial between now and next year for which I could find a place to plant. Used quite a few annuals to fill in where I was too confused or rushed to decide on perennials to fill out a few new beds. Particularly short on spring bloomers. Maybe next year after a full year in the ground I'll have more time to enjoy all these beauties when I don't have to baby them until they get established. I was never so happy to hear thunder and lightening as last night thinking "Yippee...I don't have to worry about watering at 5 AM" expecially before getting started on cooking/straightening house for Father's Day celebration. All in all, I've maxed out on plants for my first year's attempt at gardening. I dread having to transplant the last few containers of annual seedlings I started myself. What was I thinking listening to people who said "It's a snap!" compared to being stretched out on the ground trying to tease apart tiny roots and then getting them placed just right in ground soil...to say nothing of watering with droplets so they don't dissolve into the ground? What a riot but good learning experience. Boy, do I feel lucky to live in Jersey!

Hi Reds: 1. they were approx. 3 feet tall in this picture, and I think they reached this height at least 2 weeks earlier than in the past (when I did more potting-ups/potting ups to smaller than 10-inch pots). Actually when I did potting ups in the past it was usually one plant per 4 inch pot, but I had to sometimes put two plants in a 6 or 7 inch pot, and always found that the larger the pot, the faster the plant grew. 2. There were flowers forming on most plants but I did take off the majority of them. One definitely had small tomatoes on it before I even took the plants outside at the end of May (but once this was out these did not grow or mature properly, next time I think I would pull them off). 3. Answer to 3 has an asterisk, because weather was unbelievably horrible in June 2009. I think we actually had frost or snow in the first week of June (last frost date normally May 24). Plants were outsite in a covered enclosure from last week of May until the end of the first week of June, after which they went in the ground (at one point I lugged all 51 plants back inside when the threat of frost/snow came). A few plants had flowers that pollenized prior/soon after to planting. After that however, the nights were so cool that just about ALL flowers fell off for a period of about 3 weeks. The only ones with fruits that were actually growing were the ones that pollenized before/soon after planting, so I had a few plants with growing tomatoes and the rest with nothing. These early ones were very slow to ripen, and did not taste good. Around the end of June the plants exploded in flowers (presumably reacting to the lack of prior pollenization) after which we had a week of perfect weather...massive pollenization happened at that time, leading to huge production, but just about everything was very late maturing. I will try to remember to take note of time to first ripe fruits for each variety this year. I wanted to seed directly in my 10-inch pots, but with 50 of them I knew it would be very difficult to (a) keep them at the proper level of moistness and best temp to encourage germination, and (b) once they germinated, the height of the pot would likely prevent any direct sunlight hitting the plants (all my plants get sun from windows, I figured they would be too shaded to grow properly with direct sowing into large pots). I hope you try it, I would be interested to hear your results. Actually if you are still using mostly 4 inch for first transplant, why not pick some varieties for which you have multiple seedling and put some into 4 inch and some straight into 7 inch and see if you experience faster growth in th 7 inch.
