Hw OWNS the back garden ... except when I squirrel passes by .. but they are sworn enemies anyways right ?<br />I can safely say not one sucker has appeared with the Tiger Eye Sumac ... it could be the position I have it in or something , but no suckering indeed!<br />I miss my old one too .. especially when it comes to Autumn .. but all those babies and roots from hell ? no way ! LOL<br /><br />Rebecca girl thank you ! .. <br />I think you are too hard on yourself. We tend to be over critical of our own gardens for some reason .. so stop that girl!<br />It was a pretty peony but lasted too shortly with all the rain we have had.CanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-74572543367862669882014-06-18T18:14:41.115-04:002014-06-18T18:14:41.115-04:00Your beds have such great composition and flow!

That chipmunk had balls! Your garden is looking as wonderful as ever Joy. It is funny, if you hadn't mentioned the bags of pea gravel in the one shot I probably would have missed them. I was so busy noting the sumac and wondering to myself if you are experiencing any suckering. Recently I read that even this variety of sumac suckers. I really like sumacs and miss the old one I had.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-36464107900820872652014-06-18T09:03:22.286-04:002014-06-18T09:03:22.286-04:00Hello there Liz girl : )

I go through stages of collecting certain plants but I am almost out of room so I have to put the brakes on! eeeekkk !<br /><br />Jen girl ... of course I have all those problems too ! I just don't take pictures of them ! haha<br />Dreaming is a good thing .. right now with all the rain the landscape projects are being pushed back further and further.<br />BIG sigh !<br /><br />Hey there Patsi girl ! Are you ready for the final season of True Blood ? .. it is going to be sad to see it finish.

I only have one clematis which is on my trellis. I thought it was dead this year but suddenly it's growing in leaps and bounds.

It is amazing to see how different the stages are with gardens this year .. it was a hard winter and I think it really affected how the gardens reacted.<br /><br />Hello Patty girl : ) and thank you very much ..

Thankfully today was just overcast so I could get out and pull some weeds and trim some plants back a bit. Your gardens look gorgeous with all the various shades of greens and other colours.
