I did the turn about, BANG, within weeks ! .. first I thought "No ..." then I thought .. Hum ? .." then I thought "YES!" .. and ended up with two in the front and one in the back .. I must have been very hormonal that time ?

I'll be posting what they turn out like .. so watch and you can make up your mind ?<BR/><BR/>melanie .. you are right ! .. it really is for a small garden so it can be appreciated. I have black mulch (yes, it turns to gray eventuall) but it really helps highlight the plants better. My front planting is more of a mixed specimen garden .. a few hostas, heuchera, small day lilies, ferns .. just an unusual mix that I like .. and change around too much probably. So if I were you .. stick to your guns .. don't do it girl ! haha<BR/>PS .. you should see the state it will be in when the snow leaves .. utter chaos ! .. a few days of hard work ahead of me !CanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-83111371888020283062008-03-15T12:21:00.000-04:002008-03-15T12:21:00.000-04:00i dont have one but i sure want one! i've flip-fl...i dont have one but i sure want one! i've flip-flopped between "they're too busy" and "wow thats beautiful" too. I hope you get those blooms - that might just convince me to run out and buy one this year.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04119471756261855850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-46004059174853402482008-03-15T09:52:00.000-04:002008-03-15T09:52:00.000-04:00Joy, it really looks perfect in your garden. You a...Joy, it really looks perfect in your garden. You are so right, it's for a small garden. I have a garden friend who has been bugging me to get this for my garden but I just thing it would disappear. She wants me to plant it in my foundation planting on the front of my house but I also think that the foliage might not look as attractive against my mottled stone facade. It looks so pretty with your surrounding foliage and nice neat mulch. Bet your garden is always nice and neat.Melanie Chopayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05985844123815086844noreply@blogger.com
