Re: todays events....

Glad to hear you finally got your Endless Summer. I got a tiny Prairie Frost
for one of the gardens this year, I hope it makes it, it's very pretty.
Sounds like you did well.  When you get around to it, tell us what else you
picked up.

Today I planted a few things that had been patiently waiting for me to get
around to it:
Cymbalaria muralis - Kennilworth Ivy - this one is pretty cute but I'm quite
unsure of its hardiness.  The tag says zone 8, but World Plants said Zone 4.
I checked other sites, no one seems to agree.

Phlox pan. Orange Perfection, Dianthus allwoodii 'Pink Helen', Acorus
gramineus 'Variegatus' - Sweet Flag, Carex cornica 'Marginata' - Marginated
Sedge, Clematis 'Nelly Moser, Lobelia x gerardii 'Vedrariensis'.  This last
one I planted in sun, but have since read it should be in shade.  Anyone
else grow it?  should I move it?
