My favorite full-sun tender perennials are dahlias. My favorite perennial is rudbeckia. My favorite mum is Cambodian Queen. My favorite conifers are junipers. My favorite natives are the local maidenhair ferns. My favorite annuals are nasturtiums. My favorite tree is this one red oak in the grove. My favorite snake is Christie, who lives in the rocks near the strawberries. My favorite frog is Dave, who lives under the rhododendrons in the back.
