My garlic chives' blooms have been prostrate for weeks now (and yet keep on blooming!). <br /><br />I really like the combination of plants you describe for your Miscanthus area. I agree that next year those grasses should be huge (and The One??).

Morning Light is my fave too and is being used to hold daughter Semi's precarious hillside in place, being divided over and over. Your shot is divine, and are there any seeds left of you know what? :-)<br />FrancesFranceshttp://fairegarden.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2611983692965659884.post-58117629669429001492009-09-22T05:16:46.276-05:002009-09-22T05:16:46.276-05:00I think you are so imaginative for deliberately gr...I think you are so imaginative for deliberately growing chicory. I remember looking at it in road cracks in the wilds of east Baltimore (you don't want to go there, trust me) while stuck in traffic jams and thinking, what a great flower; why does no one grow this??!<br />As for the Morning Light, it is my favorite miscanthus.

I did like the little hint of chicory sneaking into view in this shot.<br /><br />Deborah, the foxtail lily has been a real roadside crowd pleaser. It gets lots of comments. I gave seeds to my mail carrier this year for her MIL who drives by on Sundays on her way to church and is always scoping out my garden apparently.Christopher C.
