As in several other area gardens, the slope facing south, plus rocks is a great recipe for success. Seedlings abound in the lawn above the plantings as well as beside them. This was the perfect view today! Carol23 - Southeastern PA, Zone "6B"   Gardenfiend  My Weather Posted on Wednesday, November 29, 2006 - 03:48 pm EST :    A beautiful planting. They look very much at home! Gardenfiend - Germany, Zone "7a"   Tim  Posted on Wednesday, November 29, 2006 - 03:51 pm EST :    Do you know how old these planting are, Carol? The seedlings in the grass are a great sight too.

They look very happy and are clearly seeding around. Must be wonderful in flower as well.

Tim, I've asked the garden owner about the age of the tubers she grew from NARGS and AGS seed. The plants look mature by the amount of foliage and size.

The seedling in the grass with the two leaves looks promising. I think the choice of "parent" plants offers great potential for seedling variety.

I also love rocks in the garden nearly as much as plants. :-) Jgwoodard - TN, Zone "7"
