Imagination and inspiration....said perfectly.
I don't think I've ever seen a moon garden before...beautiful! What makes a moon garden, because it is all white or because it is all white it glows with the light of the moon? Clematis tangutica covers two large trellises in my display garden. In the fall when they are covered with white seed heads the moonlight makes them glow.
The iris are always a sign the daylilies are not far behind here, too. A little dark purple dwarf edges many of the beds, white and blue flags and the huge blooms of a few different Iris ensata brighten the garden after the daffodils fade.
Inspection for me also includes checking the "bait" plants every day early in the spring. The deer here like to nibble on the hosta, hibiscus, phlox, aster, asiatic and oriental lillies in the late spring before they go for the daylilies. When I see those plants have been nibbled then I know to get out my deer supplies... motion sensors and a big antique wooden noisemaker....sounds a little weird I'm sure. The motion sensors go off during the night when the deer enter the garden, I go out and start cranking the noisemaker...After one or two nights this generally takes care of the problem. They have plenty of other options for feeding than the garden of a cranky gardener.
