Joe...You always tour the BEST GARDENS Jennifer. Joe's is wonderful. I am intrigued how he pruned his Blue Spruces (??) I have one taking up too much room in my front flower bed & maybe this is the solution. So funny you said you swore off those funny echinaceas ~ I did too!!! However I broke down & bought a 'supreme Cantaloupe' one this year & I'm not minding it at all. :) I think now I could work with 'Southern Belle' or 'Hot Papaya' too! He sure has some lovely Hostas. <br />It's been too long since I've been by. Hope things are good with you? Thanks for sharing Joe's very lovely garden.

All of them! hahaha<br />I swear I could smell the lavender phlox in that first photo. One of my favorite summer perennials, for sure. I was surprised to see all of the hostas up front in the sunny beds. Mine get burnt to a crisp if they get any afternoon sun at all. That's the trick I want to learn! His garden is obviously a labor of love. Just stunning.

I am in awe of his inner sanctum - so organised - I have just thrown hundreds of plant labels in the refuse bin after keeping them in disarray for years - if only I was as methodical as he I would have had the plant history of my garden all filed away neatly for reference. He must spend hours out there keeping everything looking so good - and his roses are to die for. Maybe I'll try talking to mine - it looks like it works for Joe.elaine https://www.blogger.com/profile/17075935631756457901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-74968907463618210182014-07-23T04:41:23.050-07:002014-07-23T04:41:23.050-07:00I will be in Ontario on Sunday, but sadly I will b...I will be in Ontario on Sunday, but sadly I will be unlikely to stop at Joe's Open Garden.

In our garden it took some years to get going but it is now one of our best, besides it does not have any thorns or very few. One thing I like about it is that the flowers take a long time to fade and so, as new blooms open, it produces a very lush effect. <br />I will have to look for that annual poppy. That mop head is very nice!rochefleuriegardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06783773632775842680noreply@blogger.com
