Re: [SG] Sally & Brunnera

On the subject of the not garden worthy Bunnera, where I'm at, I'd like
some of those as well.  My next big project is to make a woodland garden
in one corner of the front yard (about a quarter to half acre in size).
The spot has more trees and poison ivy than I know what to do with.  Any
thing that will naturalize is worth a try.  I want the different and
unusual out there.  I have Arisaema triphyllum, Asarum canadense,
A.europaeum, Polygonatum biflorum,                  P. odoratum
'Variegatum', Smilacina racemosa, Astilbe, Aquilegia, Dicentra
spectabilis and 'Alba", D. eximia 'Luxuriant' and 'Bountiful', Galium
odoratum, Helleborus orientalis, assorted Huerchera, Mertensia
virginica, Pulmonaria, Sanguinaria canadensis, Tricyrtis formosana,
Ginsing, Hosta and Ferns out the wazoo and what I think is a "False
Trillium?" to play with.  I want Trillium and all four of the native
american lady slippers.   I guess I don't want much.  Any one know of
anything good that I missed?  I'd also like to start a "Wort" garden,
Most of which are perfect for shade garden.
   Now onto that lavender, I have several that all get morning sun.
They seem to be doing ok, but I should move the daffodils from around
them so that they'd get more sun and a faster start in the spring.  One
in particular  "Dutch"  must be getting more sun because it's gettting
huge.
