Thanks Rosemary, but I'm not sure restraint is the proper term...

This garden is late to wake up, but once it gets going, watch out! The two closest plants are a very old Cimicifuga and Globe Thistle (1). Pics are from last summer, July and early August just before we went away. Sadly, the PG Hydrangea was lost in Sandy, pushed over and the trunk cracked at the base. We propped it up again, but this spring it was DOA :-(. It's been replaced, but the new one is not a dwarf, will get 10-15' tall. Different...
