OK! Jill!
Thanks for the pictures!
I am rescinding my rescind......ssgardener--Yooo--Hooo-----I want some!

SS--I would like to have some of your Lychnis after all. Pictures do wonders--no?
Just tell me, please, if it spreads a lot? I plan to grow this in my "YUK" bed.

Rose Campion thrives there--VA Bluebells as well. Evening primroses---Sedums--
a pile of Day Lilies---My Shastas--Heliopsis--AK Daisy--2 Butterfly Bushes--etc...
My Rosemary grows there too. It is getting old!--may dig it up and start fresh.
Can I rent a back-hoe from someone????
That would open up a spot for the Lychnis.....Sounds like a plan!!!! YEAH!

Remember how I always tell you all that for me to get something NEW planted--
something OLD has to go! NO! it is NOT a wedding.......:o)

Chantelle-----
I KNOW how you love fragrant things! The pink rose above is amazing!!!
The fragrance is amazing. IF I still have a bloom next week--I will cut a stem for you to sniff.
Maybe you can search and find someplace that still sells these.
It is an "old" Rose--meaning it is way out of the patent frame. Mine is SO old--and yet it is the
strongest and most disease-resistant Rose i have. I LOVE IT!!!!
Its name is: "Sweet Surrender". Smells like Granny's perfume.....

Pic. #1--taken this week. #2--taken in 2010.

Here is another "OFFER"------
I gave up having to deal with all the dying daff. foliage in my AM bed. So tired of it!
Besides--all the clumps there are old and crowded. I never have room for my annuals
untill this foliage is GONE!!! Well---I made it gone!!!!!

I now have a BIG box-full of bulbs and foliage I dug up. Different kinds of daffodils.
I may regret a No Bloom spring next year--but the deed is done!
All my other beds have Daffs one place or another.

The "OFFER"-----Is anyone interested in taking clumps of all these bulbs??????
I would then bring the BIG box and you all can go at it. Terri---You have SO much room!!!!
Please let me know!
