What does a frustrated gardener do after twenty years of apartment-balcony gardening when she FINALLY has a yard? She plants: -two "Baby Sun" coreopsis -salvia -purple and white creeping lantana -a purple/red butterfly bush -coral honeysuckle -purple clematis -tuberous begonias -fuchsias -two pink astilbes -many, many gomphrena seedlings -brass buttons as groundcover -creeping jenny -lots of ajuga! ...over two afternoons. Yup. I'm tired. Still to come: more dead nettle (the shade garden is still a bit bare), herbs, some begonias after the pansies fade...yes, my green thumb glows in the dark. I'm a garden junkie.
