Have not tried them (alliums) before but the "drumstick" ones might be pretty mixed in with my nepetas and lavenders.Lynn Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12726341040976568748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079712767252003197.post-21425828345421879432012-05-08T22:02:27.155-05:002012-05-08T22:02:27.155-05:00I enjoyed seeing your different planting areas.

I have a whole bunch of verbena bonariensis and other things coming up, almost like a carpet that I have been fighting. Plus, I have way more marigolds coming up from last year's plants than I have room for.Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079712767252003197.post-55219089408870107472012-05-08T21:06:21.752-05:002012-05-08T21:06:21.752-05:00I can't get enough of these tree peonies. I ...I can't get enough of these tree peonies. I came over via Masha's blog, and wanted to tell you that, in my experience, William Shakespeare 2000 is fairly BS resistant in Charleston, SC. We are badly prone both spring and fall to BS, but wanted to mention that our July and Augusts are so hot that it wipes it out for a few months, a brief reprieve of sorts (though it wipes out the roses too!) There are several DAs that I have that do very good: Sharifa Asma, and Heritage, are nearly BS free with basically one spray a year in mid October in our worst BS month, if I'm not too lazy by then. I understand that Scepter d'Isle also in a healthy one as far as BS is concerned.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524574998937986323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079712767252003197.post-77248198169717641732012-05-08T10:56:11.881-05:002012-05-08T10:56:11.881-05:00Yes I love Thalia!

Eventually they might get to be 6-8 feet. These are Chinese tree peonies, which get larger than most Japanese ones. The Japanese ones generally have larger flowers though! I love all types of peonies...spurgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02576503805188297240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079712767252003197.post-52401480813340421542012-05-08T10:54:05.689-05:002012-05-08T10:54:05.689-05:00Thank you, they are my daughter's favorite too...Thank you, they are my daughter's favorite too!spurgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02576503805188297240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079712767252003197.post-88669075721274571222012-05-08T10:53:43.619-05:002012-05-08T10:53:43.619-05:00Thanks Ann!

So understated and pretty! Your veggies are much further along than mine, which are still wishful thinking. LOL I haven't planted a single seed yet! I also visited the last post to see your tree peony. 5-7 years is a long wait, but gosh it really looks like patience pays off! I have lots of peonies, but no tree peonies. I have to say that I was surprised how small your tree peony is. I though tree peonies were huge??Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079712767252003197.post-83355057028579615102012-05-06T13:09:06.883-05:002012-05-06T13:09:06.883-05:00Rebecca, the violet alliums are my favorite.Nice s...Rebecca, the violet alliums are my favorite.Nice starting of may!Nadezdahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08159291982383302922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079712767252003197.post-65082635829597124012012-05-05T10:06:29.645-05:002012-05-05T10:06:29.645-05:00Hi.

Nor have we planted much in the vegetable garden. Your's looks quite healthy. Happy gardening.annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01668006270534204954noreply@blogger.com
