Re: A New Raised Bed

Hello Cara,
    The Anemone nemorosa Kate Dryen was simply a name in a small nursery listing I
happened to come across. They also had "Ginny". No descriptions, just a listing.
Since I am a sucker for every name new to me on nemorosas.... had to order some of
each. I do not have the slightest ideal what color either will bloom in come this
spring.
    Trillium stamenium is also known as the "Propeller Trillium". Usually a
chocolate-red in color or bloom, leaves are not mottled. Has curious petals that
reach outward on a horizontal plane and each one is twisted like a propeller.More
of a curiosity than stunning beauty. The trilliums were planted right next to the
path in the raised bed, where I felt it would be a good chance to see them up
close and appreciate the "difference" they are noted for. They are pretty rare in
the trade and seldom show up.
