Random Musings

Some thoughts as we head into the weekend:
I am now realizing the ornamental interest with Baptisia seed pods:

The grasses are starting to make their presence known:
Miscanthus 'Variegatus':

Panicum 'Northwind':

From left to right - Miscanthus 'Gracillimus', Miscanthus 'Purpurascens' and Calamagrostis 'Eldorado':

Panicum 'Rotstrahlbusch':

I planted Veronica 'Royal Candles' in mass this spring and the color blast is most welcomed right now:

Daylily 'Little Grapette' is still chugging away and I am enjoying the blooms for the first time in three years as the deer have stayed away. Like I've always said, daylillies are the greatest:

And finally, Salix 'Hakuro Nishiki' is kind of liking its space. Looking at a severe pruning next winter:



Have a great one.
