We'll talk off line about where.
I have some trees for you and a daylily or three!
not orange daylilies?!
i have some ditch lilies if you want some...
funny story: a friend of ours is having his farm landscaped
by some big fancy company. he was showing me the plan to see
what i thought. i told him 2 things, no, you do NOT want to
plant a blue spruce right at the corner of the house
(seriously, it was 3 feet from the foundation in the plan),
and you don't have to *buy* the great swathes of ditch lilies
(est price on the plan was $350 for regular orange ditch
lilies) because i'll *give* you all the stupid damn lilies you
want. FREE!
i have a lot of perennial phlox (the tall kind that blooms
all summer) in my shade garden. would it be happier somewhere
sunnier or should i just leave it alone?
and if i have to cut back hard a lilac, is that best done
right after bloom? this thing is 15' tall with 5-6" diameter
trunks. i want it a bit shorter... like no more than 8'.
