I'm not sure if the hummingbird hawk moth is in my zone, I'll have to check it out!<br /><br />Hi Carol, Thanks for your great message! I was pretty excited when I wrote my post. I am very pleased with the Speedwell, I hadn't seen it before anywhere so everything about it is new to me.<br /><br />Hi Linda, Thanks for stopping by! I bet the woodruff makes a great bed for a corgi. I have a bigger dog and try to keep her out of the beds as much as possible! I have allergies and don't notice the more subtle smells, but I did investigate the woodruff and you're right, it does have a lovely scent. Thanks for the tip!Rebecca @ In The Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17513002032328432666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671006236976973866.post-60379547683797235612010-06-13T20:06:29.496-07:002010-06-13T20:06:29.496-07:00What a great welcoming party on your return!

There are so many changes going on in the gardens... we lament the loss of one kind of bloom, but there are others unfurling at the same moment... about to come into their time to show. Your joy comes across and is contagious. ;>)Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01067132532095325169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671006236976973866.post-30227289202135903582010-06-11T03:30:03.732-07:002010-06-11T03:30:03.732-07:00Hi Rebecca,

You are so right, it seems that from here on out through the end of the season the garden changes on a daily basis. I love taking early morning walks to see what has happened overnight. Your sweet woodruff will be a wonderful host for the hummingbird hawk moth, I have been wanting to plant some just for that purpose. :)Liisahttp://liisainvermont.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671006236976973866.post-88653642249337803552010-06-10T15:23:15.113-07:002010-06-10T15:23:15.113-07:00Hi socal, Welcome & thanks so much for your po...Hi socal, Welcome & thanks so much for your post! :)Rebecca @ In The Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17513002032328432666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671006236976973866.post-83732042429306425652010-06-10T15:01:13.586-07:002010-06-10T15:01:13.586-07:00Gorgeous blooms!

I did sow some Cosmos seed into the bed too, but bought plants as backup! The seedlings are small, but look pretty good so far.<br /><br />Hi Noelle, the tulips are very special. I'm very happy with them! I love little violas, I don't know how they are in your zone, but here they pretty much perennialize by self seeding. :)<br /><br />Hi Ms S, Thanks for your message, it's amazing what can happen in a short period of time! I think Woodruff is great, I have it all over the place. <br /><br />Hi Jean, Thanks for your message! I also worry about what I'll miss, or if everyoe will be ok if I leave. But they usually are! :)<br /><br />Hi Shady, Sweet Woodruff does run all over, but I find it VERY easy to move around as needed. It's funny that you mention creeping sedum, mine were TERRIBLY invasive and I had to rip them out last year (which was quite difficult). You'll like this...Barbara Sherwood is in FULL shade, I'd be surprised if she gets 2 hours of sun a day, some very dappled, intermittent sun til about 10, and that's it for the day. I'm sure she would be very happy in your garden. :)Rebecca @ In The Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17513002032328432666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671006236976973866.post-28638526795484927072010-06-09T20:22:09.293-07:002010-06-09T20:22:09.293-07:00Hi Rebecca!

I don't mind, for the most part, but it does want to dominate some of my creeping sedum plants. Barbara Sherwood is very pretty.

I can just barely smell the lilacs lol. 'Barbara Sherwood' in in quite deep shade, and has a great rosette of foliage too, we'll see how long the bloom time is, but so far, they've exceeded my expectation. :)Rebecca @ In The Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17513002032328432666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671006236976973866.post-46346681194834961952010-06-08T14:33:02.716-07:002010-06-08T14:33:02.716-07:00Gardens seem to grow so fast this time of the year...Gardens seem to grow so fast this time of the year. They seem to leap over night. I love your Gentian Speedwell 'Barbara Sherwood'. It is good to know it will take some shade too. The Globe Flowers are so lovely. You just reminded me to move my Jacobs Ladder. It didn't bloom like your lovely this spring so I need to get it closer to some sun maybe. Don't you love the fragrance of them.Lonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07060003333138052194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671006236976973866.post-87329157682682365352010-06-08T10:59:47.667-07:002010-06-08T10:59:47.667-07:00Hi geos, thanks for stopping by, and for your mess...Hi geos, thanks for stopping by, and for your message!<br /><br />Hi vrtlarica, I have a photographic memory, which helps a lot, as well as a scientific background so I'm somewhat obsessed with details & facts. Sometimes, the names people come up with are better than the real ones.

I bought it at Canadian Tire, and haven't seen it anywhere else. Thanks for the cosmos inforation, it is a pretty flower and will look good after the tulips fade. I do like the little hidden garden surprises. :)<br /><br />Hi Laura, Thanks for your message and kind words!! I am also very fond of the globeflower, and might find a spot for another one or 2.<br /><br />Hey Joy, thanks for stopping by! I really hope this petunia problem is only temporary, otherwise my plant search will have been futile. It's probably not too late to seed some cosmos now, I direct sowed some a few weeks ago, but bought these as back up plants, just in case ;). Hope you're feeling better.<br /><br />Hi Deborah, I did think of you during my (long lol) absence, and felt silly for thinking I had missed something. I would be tempted to set up cameras, you know, for security/surveillance purposes ;).<br /><br />Hi Kiki, thanks so much for your message!

It would make a nice edging. I found that cosmos reseeded for me when I had them in the past. <br /><br />Like your dwarf irises, I have a few shorter plants tucked in here and there, and even though I can't see them from the windows, I do like to see them as I walk around the beds.Northern Shadehttp://northernshade.ca/noreply@blogger.com
