While we all have a moment to consider last year's garden, I wonder what surprised each of us?

For me, it was the color orange. I have never cared for orange much in the garden, have been careful not to plan for or buy anything that even hinted at orange. It just isn't for me. It hit me one day, when I was admiring an orange flower on my Nasturium, that I have actually picked up - and loved - quite a bit of orange this last year.

This is the Crocosmia I got last April at the Spring Kerrville RU, from catbird8. I love it!
