    Logan nice…pics… alliums are great dried. I like to paint them and hang them on the holiday tree and wreaths. They are a real stand out in your garden.

    Thanks Pacnorwest, that's a great idea to dry them for the Christmas decorations.

    Logan great collection of hostas. Hostas always seem to brighten up shady areas.

    Beautiful roses @Daniel W .
    We have a Mock Orange but is further behind yours so no blooms here yet.
