Thank you Happy! My trollius is new, so I don't know how it will spread. It does fine in soil that is not wet.

I find Lady in Red needs lots of water. She's coming up on year 3.

My Oakleaf Hydrangea in deep shade is extremely thirsty.

I need more of everything!!!

Hirtsgardens on Ebay stores has lots of cheap perennials. 8 for $18, or 25 for $35 on lots of varities. These are young, small, extremely healthy plants.They are a well known nursery in ohio. Their packaging is supurb. They have their own website, but I couldn't find the link just now. Shipping is reasonable. Only downside is post sale service. It stinks! Just on Ebay alone, they do about 5000 transactions a month and about 25 of those get questionable feedback. That's not bad unless yours is a problem. Good luck with the new bed!

These babies do just as well in sun or shade, only bloom later in deep shade.
