About me: I garden on a bit over an acre outside Ottawa. (USDA 4) I love growing flowers and flowering shrubs and trees, especially from seed. Daylilies have become a new interest, especially purple/ mauve/ lavender. Unfortuately I’ve accumulated many labeled such that turned out dark red or peach. Oh well, the search continues.

My zone is: USDA4 Ottawa
