And peonies are one of my favourites.<br />It's not been hot up here. On the cooler side, and quite rainy. A bit more heat would be good, but it's hard to complain about the rain we so needed.Lisa D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14777395903446188971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160371074353452445.post-12478850356209841212011-07-08T04:13:50.141-07:002011-07-08T04:13:50.141-07:00Who are you trying to kid?

Someone had a few martinis, fell into the hosta bush, and is napping it off back there. <br /><br />That is a beautiful hosta and I don't recall ever seeing one that color or with that leaf pattern. I truly love hostas, but have no clue where I'd plant one. <br /><br />Do you have troubles with slugs or are they slug/bug resistant?Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160371074353452445.post-23199310462044538102011-07-07T22:11:43.355-07:002011-07-07T22:11:43.355-07:00Have you seen my Christmas in July post?
