TIme to recap the last week in my Garden. We've been in another dry spell,
although not as hot as it was during last month's - which most of the plants
are taking very well. Anyway, I've bookmarked Home Depot as the clearance
hydrangea capital of the world for the last week of June, as they had
palletsful of very nice "public domain" specimens at 50% off! Adding
to my collection is now a 2nd 10-gal David Ramsey, which was $20 and had at
least 10 new blooms ready to flush out on new wood. Also I added my first
Hydrangea serrata, Grayswood, which has uniquely rosy leaves and is a lacecap
for my patio entrance (shade area). I also picked up a Black Knight butterfly
bush, which fit nicely along my west fence border. The only major work I did to
fit these in was moving my dwarf Rhodies from the patio entrance (where they
weren't doing well at all) to my back hillside in between the regular Rhodies.
I then put my Forever & Ever lacecap and the Grayswood in those open
places, while moving the Forever & Ever Fantasia where the lacecap was,
since it can take more sun than most.
