The last time I saw a Canada Lily was in a rocky meadow, bordering woodlands where I used to hike.

I have learned something today ! : )<BR/><BR/>Hi NorthernShade .. I think I know what you mean about the space thing .. I have crowded plants and winced over that a few times. Yes ! I think ferns have beautiful patterns .. they make lovely pictures close up with their designs.<BR/><BR/>Sue .. it doesn't sound like you are ready to give that asparagus up yet .. we were amazed to see how the Europeans grew it ..

I ...The intricate detail of fern foliage is lovely. I like the patterns they make. Your log fern is good looking, with its classically shaped fronds. Some ferns do seem to grow so slowly, and make me wish that I had planted them earlier. It's hard not to give their surrounding space, that I'm saving for them, over to another plant.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-14730982521969260062008-09-19T08:23:00.000-04:002008-09-19T08:23:00.000-04:00Odd how you sometimes get hooked on a plant that d...Odd how you sometimes get hooked on a plant that doesn't really seem to be particularly exciting...
