    Guess I just wanna vent. Or maybe some one can actually provide some constructive advice. Or sympathy, or something.

    I'm doing a bed that has 2 roses in the back, interspersed with Asiatic lilies and Summer phlox. In front of this I have two seperate bunches of Echinacea 'Double Decker', 3 lavenders 'Hidcote', some blue sedum of some sort and a border of mature liriope planted by the previous owners. I'm trying hard to not overplant and end up ripping stuff out once it matures. Later on I'm sure I'll interplant with annuals, but ... well, today ...

    It looks AWFUL!

    Wah! And then I come to this forum, with every thread started with the prettiest pictures on the site. It's just not *right*! Patience, my , uh, foot!
