Goldfinch4, your lilies are so full and gorgeous! That whole bed is one of my favorite combos! Love the front corner of your house too! What did you use for containers? The heucheras are beautiful too. I love the ''short'' plant selection. The garage bed is so full and full of color too! The back fence is gorgeous! Love the clematis. I see you like blue flowers too. No wonder you were on city gardenwalk!

Wendyloo66, 5 acres! What I would do with that much room!

Magnolialover, Tetleytuna, frozen tundra here too. 12* and it was snowing all morning. Hey, the sun just came out!!

Nanny56, daylilies are my weakness with phlox, lilies, iris and all blue flowers. I love your beds too! What is the tall white and pink lily?

Goldfinch, you are singing my song :o) I decided not to buy much of anything this year and work on moving and dividing what I have. My beds need a serious work over. Your beds are perfect for color and form!

Wendyloo, at least 1 Bleeding heart, dicentra spectibles will make the north wall spectacular in the spring. Varigated hostas look good and will bloom too. Solomans Seal gets tall and curves over smaller plants. The bumble bees really like mine.

North Peony Bed, with phlox, daylilies, liatris and oriental lilies to name a few. This was taken the day after straight line winds.
