Dave, would you please consider a perennials forum?
I realize there is a Cottage Gardening forum. But many people grow perennials that do not consider their gardens Cottage Gardens. It is sort of like saying if you want to discuss growing petunias, take it to the container forum. No, you would first take your question to the annuals forum.
There are so many unusual perennials available to gardeners these days, I think a "general" forum would be an asset to the site.
