I like to ask before I add...Hey Hunky ! thanks ! .. I like to ask before I add and I know I have missed a few that I intended to do .. brain is on strike .. <BR/>Hey .. we gnome people have to stick together .. right ?? LOL<BR/><BR/>Hi Gail ! .. I had to dig out my plant tags from last year to find at least two of the Goldenrod .."Golden Baby" which is smaller but very pretty .. and "Crown of Rays" bigger bolder but still great for not taking over its place. I have Purple Dome aster to contrast with the yellow of the golden rod .. but they are slower to flower out right now .. and the mums have lots of buds as do the sedums .. I hope they will all look good. Are you looking for a shorter ironweed ? .. I don't know of any cultivars that are .. I'm not familar with ironweed although I love the look too !<BR/><BR/>Debbie .. you can't lose with BES .. they are so bright and cheery .. that yellow just puts a ZING in your garden girl ! LOL<BR/><BR/>Hi Rose ..the breeding for goldenrod cultivars has been great .. lots of new ones that aren't huge and non aggressive .. Baby Gold is a nice one to have so have a look at that if you are thinking maybe ? .. and yes .. Pinky is a winner with me ! : )CanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-37848695542863292762008-08-16T12:59:00.000-04:002008-08-16T12:59:00.000-04:00There is a pic of me in the sidebar so the fans ca...There is a pic of me in the sidebar so the fans can judge the hunk factor. I have been told I am hunky (ok, it was by my grandma when I was 14, but still!).<BR/><BR/>I live for 'adds' so add me up and thanks for it!

I like the strong purples like ironweed with goldenrods...it is way too tall for my garden over 6 foot. If you know of a cultivar, please let me know!<BR/>I grow Zigzag goldenrod...the stem does zig and zag and would look cool in the snow, unless it's deeper than I imagine!<BR/><BR/>Have a great weekend!<BR/><BR/>gailGailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194325535496408116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-15081398229820472922008-08-16T11:31:00.000-04:002008-08-16T11:31:00.000-04:00Hi Joy, You have just inspired me to go by some bl...Hi Joy, You have just inspired me to go by some black eyed Susan seeds to plant with my cone flowers.

I never thought toilet brushes would come up as a topic on my blog, but now I can say we have discussed just about everything ? LOL<BR/><BR/>Hello there Hunky Gardener .. not the cultivated ones, these aren't the ones you find in the 'wild" ? haha .. I haven't got the names to them right now but they are well behaved so far .. loads to choose from depending on the size of space you want it for .. go for it !<BR/><BR/>Thank you so much Garden Girl ! .. things are beginning to wind down and I have so much to do it is overwhelming .. I want to get some mundane ? chores out of the way today .. then write down all the 'moves" to make before the snow flys ... yikes !CanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-62763651129844086712008-08-15T21:14:00.000-04:002008-08-15T21:14:00.000-04:00I want more yellows too!

Of all things--they are especially fall! <BR/><BR/> Do you tire of hearing me whine about what I don't have right now? I had to buy bathroom toilet brushes today so everyone would have one:(---some were complaining who actually clean the toilet when they get up....TMI right?( I should have hauled mine over from the old house---but would you believe those new owners wanted them? yikes!, now I know why..they cost $5 each!) Well anywho---that means less flower money.<BR/><BR/> I want my garden to be lush and full right now---not in three years! I don't see why we need more than one toilet brush anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-33990644608506085662008-08-15T20:51:00.000-04:002008-08-15T20:51:00.000-04:00I really like the goldenrod.
