<<Any perennials which are blue for suggestions to plant
in drifts?>>
How about baptisia? Or hardy plumbago? (ceratostigma?) Or one of the smaller,
hardier delphinium? Or a non-climbing clematis? Or campanulas? Or a bulb,
snow glories for early?
Good idea, Kate, I love blue!
I am still trying to get a good coneflower. My first try had very narrow,
grayish-lavender petals. Maybe the next one will be really pink with nice wide
petals. I have seen some beauties in huge clumps on the garden tours last year.
Cold frames seem like a good idea but I can think of several things that might
not work here - I would probably forget to close or open them, and the cats
would probably sit on them!
