Re: favorite combinations
Hello Hank,
Think I can do better than just describe some of my favorite plant
combinations in my garden. Take a look at my new web site. Lots of new photos and
a virtual garden tour. Even threw in some Hosta in a photo.
One that is not included is Variegated Solomon's seal along with European wood
anemone weaving through the stand of SS. Hellebores and early Primula are another
treat for the late winter garden. Right now the Arum italicum is bright green,
shiny and looking good with the Hellebore foetidus in black-green base with
lime-green bud stalks.

Subject: [SG] favorite combinations
Hi All--Over time there have been several occasions when you've been asked to list
your favorites (mini's or giants or blues or whatever).As I start to prepare for
this spring's buying binge, my request is a bit different. Would anyone care to
list their favorite combinations of plants? In other words, do you have 2 or 3 or
4 varieties of hostas that work very well when planted together? How about
combinations of specific varieties of companion plants? Favorite combinations of
companion plants with hostas? This could save us all countless hours of looking
for "just the right plant(s)" for a certain garden spot. All ideas will be
welcome.
