Ah! More Shade
What more could one ask?? You are, indeed, blessed.
well, yes and no, because the soil that is now in shade was well
amended in the beginning, adding/moving is quite easy. But I now have
lots more dry shade and will welcome all advice on what would do well.
This year I have been trying to use the plants I have in my holding areas
before purchasing anything. Notice I said trying.... mostly I have been
succeeding. With all the rain and nursery business, about all I have been
able to somewhat keep up with is weeding in the gardens. They are not in too
bad of shape for this time of the year.
part of the effort to move things was to empty out the holding bed.
Like that really happened. But many things in the holding bed went
into planters placed around the house. I'll bury the plastic ones in
the holding bed for the winter and put the entire soil mass from the
terra cotta ones under the spruce....
I am glad to see my results of planting fall blooming perennials
over the years. Nice to walk through the garden see so much in bloom and
know that much is still to come.
Speaking of Heuchera.... I have Southern Comfort with geranium
Rozane.... soft, large leaves of peaches and cinnamon with blue flowers over
and around.
owwwwww, pretty.
How hardy is Southern Comfort? I have such mixed luck with the newer
hybrids being hardy enough for my Arctic blasts.
I found H Ginger Ale this spring and HAD to have it. What a great color?
