That “Brides Bouquet” is just beautiful … never heard of it. And am I mistaken, there is no picture for the Hydrangea Paniculata or is that the white flowers and I am reading wrong??

Regardless … yes, very interesting flowers … but all so beautiful. I would love to walk through your gardens and really check everything out. You have such wonderful spots, with unusual and most beautiful plants.

Well that last bush is GORGEOUS!!! Never seen a Hydrangea with two types of flowers. Love the pedal flowers on it. They are just lovely!!! Man, you have some unusual flowers E … good thing I don’t live close, cuz you would have little holes everywhere from me taking a piece of this and a piece of that …hahahaha!!!

I’m surprised Eklectic doesn’t have a problem with people considering her place a “midnight nursery”, and helping themselves whenever they won’t get caught.
Even up here in smalltownville we have a problem with that.

Dini,
We really are in the middle of nowhere, away from towns and people around here are quite friendly!
But even when we lived in town, with my biggest flower bed on the street with tons of people walking by at all hours of the day or night, I never lost a single plant!

Just lucky I guess!:-)
GranT,

I would give you those littles pieces. I have enough of almost all plants to share! So just come on over!:-)
I am thinking of maybe starting to sell some rather than building new beds!!!
