Pics from my garden today (pic heavy)
Comments (28)Thanks, Jo. It seems a spring fever has come upon me, and I spent almost the entire weekend browsing hosta catalogs and reading posts and doing some research about hostahostahosta. So....what else is new with the rest of the forum? Don keeps his garden so perfect, my first impulse is to ask him, "How many gardeners do you employ full time to keep it that nice?" Mine will never be so lovely. Somewhere I seem to remember pictures of the massive construction of curbed bed borders and paved pathways of this garden. THAT is total dedication, and also self-knowledge....Don knows his interest in hosta is a life long affair. I have to admire the garden on all points....See MoreSneak peak of my garden...
Comments (10)Wow!! I love Rhino Hide and didn't think you could top that plant, but you have some outstanding plants there. I would love to see the whole Regal Splendor sport plant. I like them all.

Comments (8)Oxalis comes by itself. If you do not want it everywhere, I would carefully yank it making sure you have everything. In a clay based loam , it became totally infected. I liked it with my wandering jew because it would be very nice in late winter before the wandering Jew had taken off and then it would get rust and die off abve ground and the WJ would be there ready to take over the job of taking over the space. Only problem was it tpook over everything in the front yard. This one is a native . also called wood Sorrel. Eatable in sallad too. A tart taste....See MoreA few pics from my garden
Comments (15)Thanks Embo, maybe the drain pipe doesn’t help, but these were planted last summer, in a wind-exposed location and last winter was really long and harsh (many days of -40 Celsius). They look better now than they did in Spring. I promised myself it would be the last time I would plant large specimens. If you look closely, you’ll see that my blue spruces have also suffered damage....See MoreRhonda
