That is beautiful! I just planted some body bag lily of the valley from Wal-mart. If they grow it will be the first time I have had luck with those. LOL.

That is beautiful clematis, I love the look of the buds, but evergreen also? Sounds like a real bonus. Lovey dubby

Body bag is just what I call them because so many of them die in the bags. LOL.

Here's my favorite new plant at the moment....Brakelights Red Yucca. It is pictured with Echinacea 'Strawberry Shortcake.' The blooms on it last for such a long time and I like how the stalks are bright red too. It's also smaller and seems to bloom more because it doesn't set seeds.

I was hoping to find some Lupin that will grow in my zone and no luck till this morning, I found a email from 'Annies Annuals' and I went to the website to order one and found that the shipping was 29.95 for 1-8 plants. The most shipping I have paid all year is 27.00 to mamajacks but that was for 35 plants!
Sooooo, I decided to do a google search for someone else who had the' Lupin regalis' and found only one place and they only had seeds, but I went ahead and settled for that, they are perennials and perhaps I will see blooms next year, I hear they are spectacular and good to zone 10, but sometimes they exaggerate.

Lupine (Lupinus regalis 'Morello Cherry')
