There is always something to draw the eye to. Lots of beauty.<br />I think it's great that you can obtain more plants from clients like that.Their lose, your gain. Lovely.<br />I rather like the idea of the Buckeye. It would connect the soil to the Cozy Cabin while provide some semblance of privacy.Lolanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2611983692965659884.post-30149670786612798322009-06-29T20:04:12.243-05:002009-06-29T20:04:12.243-05:00Grace that last lily looks to be the Asiatic Lily ...Grace that last lily looks to be the Asiatic Lily 'Dot Com'. I'm sure the bees will love the Buckeye.<br /><br />Frances the idea is to have something top out at the height of the railing. I do want some screening since there won't be any curtains most likely. I have the elevation drop that the Buckeye can work unless it is too happy. Then I can prune it or remove it. Yep, the Christopher C.

The buckeye is a beauty, but do you want to block the view of your front porch, or is that the idea? You want to be able to see who might be coming down your driveway, like a gas guzzler full of plants, while rocking the time away. :-)<br />FrancesFranceshttp://fairegarden.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2611983692965659884.post-49345353327352654172009-06-29T11:20:38.938-05:002009-06-29T11:20:38.938-05:00I would agree--definite advantages!

Most people I think would find the wild cultivated garden on this mountain a nightmare.<br /><br />Lisa I bet you could safely move that viburnum in the spring or fall, which reminds me to do the same of some seedling viburnums here this fall.

I planted one this spring and am babying it along in this heat wave. They are beautiful in bloom. There is a giant stand of them at the Missouri Botanical gardens and they are fragrant, too. Things seem to grow on your mountain Christopher.

I also like it that you have enough room to make swaths of plants. It looks so nice. I can just imagine those bottle brushes swaying in the breeze. I have a viburnam that has rooted itself. I am afraid to cut it off and move it. I wouldn't want to lose is. So it is just making the viburnam look huge. I give it room. Let it grow.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2611983692965659884.post-54404882269977294342009-06-29T04:42:54.557-05:002009-06-29T04:42:54.557-05:00Lucky you, to get client #1's cast offs.
