Victor, all I can say is WOW! Not that I wouldn't have seen these plants elsewhere, but I want every single one of them. Weigela 'My Monet' was already on my list. Excellect presentation.

Very nice article, Victor, and informative as always. It probably makes us all wish for more room in the garden.

Not as a rose person, but I always like to see more hydrangeas and different weigelas used. That small blue buddelia is interesting.

Victor, please stick to just ugly things from now on, as you are killing my budget. Now on the hunt. I picked up Limelight on sale in June of 2006 from the Park/Wayflower sale. It has done well, thanks again, well, sort of. Patti

Victor, you just broke my budget for the front, it was going to be roses to cover my brick arches. Now with your article, my thoughts turn to the back yard and two empty corners that I could fill instead. A conundrum, thanks a lot, Victor.

nicely done!
i am wondering about the Lil' Kim flower... Do you think it is named after the rapper (in)famous for wearing very little clothing?

Victor; HOW am I going to find room for all these MUSTHAVE plants?
I am sure I can't live without the Hydrangea and the yellow variegated Weigela!
My DH is NOT going to like it, but that's just a minor inconvenience to 'out of room'!

Thanks for sharing!!!

Right here there is no wine, but an hour drive will get you there!
If you are bringing a spade, you can all come!
No, just kidding! If you ever come this way you MUST come visit me and tell me my garden IS NOT over the top! :-)
