My bed looks like a box of 64 colors Crayolas

This is my third summer, and I have overdone it already.

I think a box of 64 crayons would be a good description for a cottage garden. Sounds just right to me.

Personally, I like a mix of shrubs and perennials. I don't do many annuals, but I like them in the gardens. This year I seem to have foxgloves going crazy. I try to get the foxgloves so they are equal each year, but no matter how I seed every year it seems heavier ever other year.

One plant I found I really like is persicaria polymorpha. Those are really standouts.

I worked on doing the same thing with my foxgloves and now one year is very heavy and the next (this year) very very light - crazy!

The gods have shinned on me.Picasa is working.Dont ask how it happened.Maybe Alison was right,maintenence maybe.
