Re: shade plants to replace hostas


Hello Joanie,
Right now Rozanne has come up to speed and have nice foliage and covered with the blue blooms. I Transplanted 3 to the garden and in the center of the triangle transplanted species lilium bulbs... that are in bloom now... bright clean yellow blooms. Definitely some contrast there. One could always tone it down a bit with other colors. I think in my old age I am beginning to like stronger color combinations.

Hi, Gene:

That's enough info for me to know that I don't want to try them but many
thanks for the offer and for sharing your experience with them.

On the other hand, your Geranium 'Rozanne' (beautiful flowers!) and the
Epimediums are thriving but have yet to leave their pots for permanent homes
(need to finish the new bed first)....I must say that your plants are always
super well-rooted and hefty, healthy plants. I need to check out what you have
available as well as Chris' web site. What a terrible time of the year to
lose an entire bed of plants as shipping has about ended for most nurseries.

Thanks for the info and hello to JoAn, too!
