The above quote from Claire's note has prompted me to write. I've been reading similar comments from alot of list members... What to keep what to give away/compost.
I am beginning to see that is what's wrong with my garden. There are "holes" at different times of the season and must cultivate my appreciating for foliage.
The question is: What are you favorite combos of foliage? Do you combine the green-blues with the silvers only or the greens to the yellows only together? do ever the two palettes work together?
I picture a bed that looks like an old Medieval Tapestry but can't quite figure out how.
