January in my 2021 hosta garden
Comments (28)Snow falling and in the 20's here. Love your hellebores. I've gotten more last year since I love how they look in the garden--however, some do have a habit of growing vigorously and I've had to divide and send some to a niece. Funny thing about those 30 foot long leashes--we have some owners on our street who have them. Unfortunately, they do let their dogs wander up to our house and yes leave a mess. One guy has three golden retrievers who get their leashes tangled since they are so long. It never seems to bother him that the dogs are wandering all over our yard, even when I am out there working in the yard. Some people just don't care. Our dogs were always on shorter leashes. Anyway, love your flowers, they look so bright!...See MoreFebruary 2021 in my hosta garden
Comments (19)I want to come visit and get some clippings for my rooting bed. You have beautiful camellias! and those beautiful helleborus must set seeds... There are a whole bunch of 2 leaf seedlings coming up under some of my helleborus. I saw them today and plan to try to gently dig them up and put them in some little pots this week. Rain is coming back in tomorrow. My winter honeysuckle is blooming and smells so yummy. One of the hybrid edgwarthias has also opened its blooms. The "granny" edgwarthia and the red one are still closed and their flowers are smaller....See MoreApril 2021 in my hosta garden
Comments (117)utog..another silhouette pic!..this one's great too!.. your garden's looking good!..we had 2 inches of rain Wed night..I had standing water (common in our high water table neighborhood) in my usual spots..so I didn't walk around in back today.. my still unclipped ratty winter foliage on an Autumn fern..they're slow for me.. the Japanese Painted ferns look fresher than the Autumns beside them..maybe because the Japanese Painted ferns die back?.. n2hostas..my green ginger is a good spreader..plant it with some space..but my craziest groundcover is this Lamium galeobdolon..can you see the variegated plant behind this bleeding heart?..that's it.. miles..there was a post a long time ago where someone used a wide shallow container for mini's and had success.. when I clean, weed and top with compost these plants will look prettier.....See MoreJuly 2021 in my hosta garden
Comments (61)Debra, you’re right that Munchkin Fire and Mango Salsa have similar flowers. I am sorry that your Waverunner has had a rough start. I decided to order it last weekend after reviewing Steve’s photos and praise of it. Also, WR is a sport of Squash Casserole, one of Tony Avent’s creations and reported to grow well in the South. Wish me luck!...See Moreundertheoaksgardener7b
