I ...Such a big undertaking to replace a front yard! I was overwhelmed with choices when the freeze took out so many plants in my back garden. It was exciting to try new combos, but, Aigh!, I made so many mistakes! For one, I thought the orange cosmos would grow 2-3 feet tall. They were border plants -- and they're taller than me!<br /> It looks like you really thought out your groups well Penny Carnathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05043964566371049303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6364167854783221638.post-60136864535714162642010-07-08T11:13:10.704-04:002010-07-08T11:13:10.704-04:00what a lovely entryway - I'd enjoy a slow stro...what a lovely entryway - I'd enjoy a slow stroll to your door anyday!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04232693432045335251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6364167854783221638.post-5898401589572611002010-07-08T07:01:44.907-04:002010-07-08T07:01:44.907-04:00Floridagirl - I am loving the caladiums this summe...Floridagirl - I am loving the caladiums this summer.

You just can't beat these plants for shady spots. I bet you got a great price on those coonties. They can be kinda pricey at the nursery center.
