A picture of my shade garden.

I started this last summer and am really enjoying it this year.

Here's another shot.

Looks really nice. I have a lot of shade and really enjoy some of the shade plants.

Oh it's beautiful Lois...I love shade plants!

Beautiful!is that a Hemlock in the back?very nice spot!

Very nice, I like your use of containers to supplement the in ground plants. I know that you will enjoy this bed as hot hot weather descends on us in Tennessee. Nat

Thanks, everyone~

Rootdoctor, it's a whole row of hemlocks. I love them.

Nat, since you're in Knoxville, have you gone to Calalily's greenhouse yet? I'm going to Knoxville this weekend and might try to stop by there. Have you ever seen the UT Gardens? They're GREAT!

GrannyLois, I tried to find Calalily's greenhouse - - but couldn't find it. I went up and down Clinton Hwy several times - but I must have been looking in the wrong area. I guess I need to get some better directions. I would LUV to see her plants, especially her brugs. I ordered 3 cuttings from her this spring and they are doing wonderful.

And yes the UT gardens are super. Hubby and I are planning a trip to the Biltmore House (Asheville) for early June. I love their gardens.

I live in North Knoxville - - not too terribly far from Calalily's (maybe 15 minute drive). Drop me an email if you want to swing by my house this weekend or sometime later. I would love to meet you sometime. Maybe, I could get a couple of "SuperDave" pointers from his mom. :)Nat
