A couple more items.....

1--Monarda--"Raspberry Wine" (?) from last Swap

2--The other Monarda--Red--also from last Swap. Is this the one I was
concerned that it would become invasive??? Robin--was this from you?
I stuck it in the back of my YUK bed...

3--Jeff--this is for you. You asked me what exposure the Kitchen Side bed had.
I said--full AM sun until about 3PM.
Here is the AM/East side of my house, See the mowed grass line? That is as far as
my property goes. The bed with the Phlox and the 7-bloom Orienpet Lily--and the 2 ferns--
and the big cluster of purple Phlox all co-exist in this bed-right behind the black railing.
as does my Endless Summer Hydrangea. Small--but productive.
In front you can see the WS bed at the end of my driveway--which now hosts my "Big Pot".

4--Here is a straigh-on view of my Kitchen-Side bed---still evolving...

5--Here is "Felicia's Phlox". The poke she grows against is 6' tall. This is a very small bed
at the corner of my patio--right behind where my grill sits.

Just getting some of you "oriented" to my garden.
