Ninebark Center Glow hedge
Comments (18)Here is the bay window underneath which I want to plant the hedge. I know it looks a little untidy right now but some of those perennials are coming out (been experimenting). As you can see I don't have much space and I want to leave as much room as possible for perennials in front of the hedge. On the right is a vanilla strawberry hydrangea behind the rhodo. To the left is a smaller Fothergilla (can't see clearly), the hedge will go in between and right under the window. Spot gets sun till 2pm....See MoreNinebark Diable v. Coppertina
Comments (3)You're right - MUCH slower. The Diablo is quite lush and rich looking compared to Coppertina, but I wondered if it was because of the PM. Maybe I'll cut it right back, I guess I have to get rid of the damaged leaves anyway!...See MoreNinebark not so hardy after all?
Comments (27)Thanks, VStapes! Your combination of Summer Wine and that artemisia (what's it called? Is it Valerie Finnis?) is truly STUNNING! I must think of Summer Wine then, if this Coppertina does not work out.... sigh! Oh, BTW, I tried to grow that Artemisia Valerie Finnis last year but it did not survive our winter.... I must find another spot and try again! It is really stunning. I LOVE IT! Thanks....See MoreDo you grow ninebark in full sun without it burning?
Comments (15)The roots looked fine but dry despite the weekend rain. Typically it doesn't rain enough here to completely re-wet soil that has not been kept well watered until November here. On average August is the driest month of the year, November the wettest. Even with all the storms and rain in November there is still a general recurring pattern of the soil gradually re-moistening and cooling over the course of the winter, so that by spring plants face the coldest and wettest soil conditions of the whole year - one of the disadvantages of spring planting. Whereas autumn (before November) planting has the significant advantage of soils still being comparatively warm and dry. And in fall it is getting cooler and moister, instead of hotter and drier - after mid-August the average temperature falls off markedly, with rains starting back up, the storms of November (and cold of December) around the corner. With the recent wild weather we have had this year my lawn is filling back in already. I have been surprised that it has been wet enough to generate this response, which started some time ago....See Moremazerolm_3a
