Mix of everything is happening here this winter. I have too many to seperate all I like and composting the garden will eleminate self sowed.I will harvest in a couple of weeks.

I love all your colors! Poppies are such great fillers...and I have lots of empty space...

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Yes, it think it might be...also will be too hot for them in August. I know I was pushing the sow date this year. I had such bad luck with the 1st batch that I direct sowed these in mid May.

New lily for me this year...it's a shorty but very cute.

I have never known the name of this climber...it's a tiny pink rose with a million buds on it. It will bloom again later in the summer but not as profusely.

LOL Campanula punctata is going to be put to the test on my hillside. This hillside has defeated other "invasive species" before. It's partially shady from large oak trees and gets direct morning sun. I have been gardening this hillside for 28 years and have yet to have anything except oak seedlings and dandelions attempt a hostile takeover. Things grow and some grow well, but nothing approaching a takeover. Good luck to it in its try. I would be happy for a small clump to return next year. I seem to recall who gave it to me and I will ask her about it. If it is who I think it is, she probably has more!
Picture is of my hillside from two weeks ago.

Primrose will take off no matter where you put it. I have some under a tree, in full shade and some only get morning light. I planted 6 plants beside the Gazebo one year ago....this is what is here this year!!!

I have some primrose in sun and they are not doing anything like that!

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Maybe thats it...none of mine are in full sun.

Thomaston, CT

My primrose are in dry shade & do well! Pixie, great lilies....love that yellow one.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Love the comment in plant files

Quoting:
"Punctata" is obviously Latin for "invasive weed."


My primrose does well in the spring/early summer before it gets too hot because they are in full sun(ya think it was say that in the despcription)


Looking great at your place Celeste!
