Of everything my favorite is "Heuchera 'Paris' divisions blooming away" and tho i love that heuchera (that you introduced me to. thank you!), it is the way you displayed the round mossy rock on the plant stand that i love, especially as i have one or two old rusty ring-only stands like that. Also candle sconces that would hold a round rock. Down under the "Hydrangea 'Glowing Embers' living up to their name", is that Silene 'Clifford Moor' Catchfly? one more thing. are all of those fuchsias hardy? the only fuchsia i did not kill this summer was my first hardy one, fuchsia 'riccartonii'. they do not like the intense dry heat of southern inland oregon, but i love them from my childhood so i grow a few each year. no heavy frost here yet. lost my sweet potato vines weeks ago, but no mushy begonias yet.<br />dramagardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13340851671861409820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4685430032033752352.post-83134233532216599822017-11-12T17:04:43.665-08:002017-11-12T17:04:43.665-08:00Seems like we are being given a fall bonus to make...Seems like we are being given a fall bonus to make up for the soggy, late spring. I never cared too much for fuchsias but after working with them all summer and noticing the wide variation in color and shape, I have a new appreciation. Plus, they bloom forever.

Fuchsias amaze me - they can bloom even in December. You have a nice group of them!<br />One day, while in Oregon, I will visit Dancing Oaks! You have so many great plants from that place!<br />Have a nice, DRY week, Grace!Tatyana@MySecretGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15230255354868127650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4685430032033752352.post-50226290333624344692017-11-12T08:19:27.552-08:002017-11-12T08:19:27.552-08:00Oh I hope that old man winter takes his time Grace...Oh I hope that old man winter takes his time Grace so that your blooms are not stopped in their tracks. I'm sure that I would hate moles too but I do have squirrels and rabbits instead.

I'm glad you have a chance to enjoy your beautiful garden for an extended period. I envy the fuchsias most of all!
