Well, I know plants grow even in places which are frozen for much of the year. Right plant, right place etc. Even so, you do have enormous variety and, as you say, a great number. It's surprising how much fits in a small space when one makes a list so in a large one . . .<br /><br />Hope your open garden goes well.<Esther Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05412078991551799972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20831949.post-30626149446902563512011-07-05T16:37:54.016-03:002011-07-05T16:37:54.016-03:00I am in love with your blog.

I love the way you describe it: a happy garden. We share a love of Echinaceas and difficult growing conditions, especially the weather: mostly hot and dry, sometimes blasted with hail, too much rain, not enough winter moisture--thats Colorado. We have a saying around here when we don't like the weather: Wait 15 minutes, it'll changeannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01668006270534204954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20831949.post-6750052049875358052011-07-02T21:43:04.020-03:002011-07-02T21:43:04.020-03:00Hi Jodi - your gardens look lovely.
