October 2009


The view from the front porch.

The house bed is exploding with growth and the meadow is punctuated by the purple muhly grasses in full flower.

These dotted horsemint were amazing this year. Between the various specimens, I think I had flowers from August through February.

An elevated view as the sun goes down.


This is exactly how I envisioned this bed looking. I love the different textures mingling together. The blue/green color of the necklacepod really helps it stand out right in front.

I always love how the flowering goldenrod looks in front of the purple muhly grass. I highly recommend planting these together together. The goldenrod is tall and skinny and can squeeze in between tightly planted grasses.

A closer look.
