CLICK TO ENLARGEIt's particularly important in a small garden to have plants with long bloom periods . For Spring I plant : tulips, daffodils, Jacob's Ladder, Cranesbill Geranium, Ajuga, and dwarf Iris. Summer : Blackeyed Susan, Veronica, Bear's britches, German Iris, Yarrow, Coneflower, Hardy lily, Goldenrod, Brunnera, Bergenia, Hosta, Euphorbia, and Phlox to name a few. Fall : Anemone, Mums, Sedum, Ornamental grass .

ReplyDeleteThis is interesting and I'm looking forward to reading about your path on becoming a garden designer!
Bear's Britches do okay for you? I really really want this in my garden, but I thought it wasn't hardy to our zone. Could I possibly be wrong? Oh please let me be wrong!
ReplyDeleteThanks kate.
ReplyDeleteKylee, this is my first test season for Bear's Britches. Some perennial catalogs say hardy to zone 3, so we shall see if it survives Chicago's winter.
