try some Hostas and Heuchera both have some very nice foliage. Also if there is sufficient sun you can plant day lilies they have tons of color so you don't have to worry about the plain old orange. all three sugestions go up to at least a zone 3(me!:) and I know of some that are in zone 1 and 2. if you are dealing with a shade type area go to the Hosta forum there are way more suggestions for different shade tolerant plants they are nice there will suggest some flowers too. There are almost too many options to list you should probably let people know your zone so they can suggest ones to fit your zone better. If all else fails plant some high bush or low bush blueberries they love acidic soils here in Maine it's one of the most thriving plants with all theses pines! :) Good Luck!

Photo won't work for me.

LOL, reminds me of one of my first days working at a deli many moons ago. Someone ordered a bologna hero. I needed to start a new loaf, so I trimmed off the end, cut off some outside wrapping, sliced, assembled, and sold the sandwich. Later in the day someone else ordered bologna and another clerk took the order. I watched as he cut back the clear plastic "shrink-wrap" that I hadn't noticed. I still laugh, thinking of the poor guy who had to peel all that plastic out of his sandwich. We never heard about it that I know of, so I assume the customer wasn't a regular - and probably didn't become one!

Grand Mall Seizure to be exact! They do not Die from them and the are med's that will help control them. You need to go to a vet to get them. He will need to know how often they happen and how bad they are. Not easy to find the cause. But there might be a trigger that brings them on. What happens just before a Seizure? Keep a record of just before it happens. This might help pinpoint the cause! Say calm if you can and don't grab the dog they can hurt you and not mean to. Hope this helps! Vet Tech Gayla
