growitall said:What kinds of plants do you grow, dirtdorphin (unless that's more of subject for one of the other threads here)?


All kinds of things for the subjects of other threads to be sure!!
Mostly tough/relatively easy stuff in the rock gardens for my climate/area areas (bulbs galore, lilies, iris, many penstemons, salvias, dianthus (? plural--forget it), astragulus, asclepias, campanula, scutellaria, lavender, agastache, linum, aubrieta, antennaria, arenaria, armeria, silene, gypsophilia, a few gentians, many different succulents, atheonema, ptilotrichum, pterochephalus, antirrhinum, aquilegia, erigeron, erodium, heterotheca, saponaria, lithodora, lewisia, heuchera, viola, veronica, globularia, satureja, pelargonium, petrophyton, dracocephalum, pulsatilla or whatever they think it is, I have a draba, and seriously, I don't remember what a bunch of other things are called??? weed malva?, hypericum, potentilla, callirrhoe, talinum, asters, telesonix, oenothera, hymenoxys or whatever they want to call it, kniphofia, epimedium, ornamental yet edible strawberries, verbena, phlox, oh yeah phyteuma, helianthemum, a few evergreens, grasses, groundcovers and I'm sure I will remember more later when I'm sleeping... Nothing too terribly tricky or exotic (except perhaps the daphnes and saxis and asperulas and androsaces)

edited, again, to correct misspellings!
